John Robinson, 52, of 1024 Goff street, was recently killed at his job at 
the C. B. White Coal Company, at Maltby and Brambleton avenues.

that Robinson died after he struck his head against a mechanical coal 
conveyor while working in the coalyard.

He died from head injuries and a severe laceration of the forehead.  Sgt. 
Jones said that Robinson and three other men were attempting to roll a coal 
conveyor out of a pit when the fatal accident occurred.

Final rites were held at the Warren Funeral Home, with the Rev. F. P. Wise
