Record Source: he was trapped with two other men in a coal mine when the roof of the working, about a mile and a half from the pit mouth, suddenly fell in without warning. About twenty other miners managed to escape the fall and ran to safety. Rescuers worked in relays to rescue the trapped men, who were bunched together in a crouching position in a space said to be about three feet by one foot. After about two hours they were pulled through a hole to safety. One of the men, the Pit Manager, had a narrow escape from more serious injury, his leg being pinned between a tub and a pit prop - his boot had to be removed before his foot could be released. Jake's home was in Byers Green
