Verdict
           We, your jury appointed to enquire into the death of one Chung Chi, find that the said Chung Chi came to his death by an explosion of gas in No. 6 mine, caused by a sudden out-burst of gas, which was liberated by a squeeze. From the evidence before us we are unable to decide how the gas was lighted; it may have been lighted by the broken lamp, Exhibit "A", or matches used by the Chinamen while lighting their cigarettes or pipes.
     We are also of the opinion that the Inspector of Mines should see that the Mines Regulation Act is more strictly enforced.
