Q: And your reason, amongst other things is the position of the body?
A: I think so.
Q: You consider that the explosion occurred in ?
A: In No.6 stall.
Q: Why?
A: Because the force seems to have radiated from both sides; the force of the explosion goes both ways from that point.
Q: Now as to that body; what position would a body be in the case of an ordinary explosion?
A: That is hard to say. You get them in all positions.
Q: What position would it be in the case of a cave in?
A: It just depends upon the position he was in when the cave in took place. This man was lying flat on his back with a stick of cordwood across his legs.
Q: Would that be the position you would expect to find the body in in the case of a cave in?
A: No, from the position he was in I would infer that he died before the cave in took place. There might have been a little dirt down to begin with, but not the cave that was there latterly.
