Thomas Bryan one of the oldest residents of Mammoth was instantly killed in the Lower Mammoth mine at 10:30 o'clock Tuesday morning. Bryan and Rowland were at work on the 1100-foot level at the time of the accident. They had undermined a large piece of ore when without warning it toppled over pinning Bryan beneath it. Madsen hastily got assistance and the lifeless form was extricated and taken to the surface.

In conversation with a Reporter representative Supt. Wm. Ball and that Bryan had been in the employ of the company for the past seven months. The accident was certainly of unavoidable kind and the grief stricken family have the sympathy of the Tinic. The mine was closed down temporarily by Supt. Ball.
The deceased was 55 years of age and leaves a wife and eight children. He has resided in Mammoth for the past fifteen years. Of recent years he has conducted a livery stable and was engaged in carrying the mail to the upper town. The deceased was a member of the Knights of Pythias of Robinson.
