The representative Mr. Ayres and Mr. Jones got off the 8.20 train this morning, and went around the Breaker; drove to Vulcan, and examined that Colliery - Suffice is it to say, that if all other Collieries were as carefully taken care of, and equiped with the fire appliances like our Collieries, they would have a good thing of it as insurance companies - [[End Page]] [[Start Page]] [[preprinted]] April, SUNDAY, 11. 1897.
