ELLIS CREEK FATALITY
CRUSHED BY A FALLING TREE.
The inquest concerning the death of Joseph Filer, aged 29 years, who was killed at Ellis Creek on Friday was held at Nannup, before the Acting Coroner, Mr. E. V. Brockman, J.P.
Reginald Summers, faller employed by the Karri Timber Co., stated that about 10.30 on the 10th inst. he was engaged with a man named Cooper in falling a tree at Ellis Creek. They were between 70 and 80 yards from the track of the steam hauler. Their tree, in falling, struck another tree and brought it down. Witness was behind the tree and did not actually see what happened, but he called out 'Look out for the horses," and then he heard his mate shout "My God, It's killed Joe." He ran to the spot, and found deceased buried under the limbs of the second tree.
William Allen Taylor stated that he was employed on the steam hauler at Ellis Creek bush landing and deceased was engaged as "whistle boy" by the Company. His duty was to work the whistle on the hauler by means of a string to signal the driver when to
start and stop the machine. They were moving a log, which had fallen across the track, and about 80 yards away Cooper and Summers were falling a tree. Witness heard the tree crack, and on looking up, noticed that the tree was likely to strike another
tree, and there was a possibility of it striking deceased and himself. He immediately called out to get away as the tree was coming. He did not run himself, as he thought he was safe for the time being. Filer ran towards him for a few yards, but on seeing the log attached to the hauler moving, he altered his direction to dodge the log, and ran right under the second tree.
Witness ran across and found deceased completely buried under the limbs, which were at least six inches in diameter. Word was sent in by the mill train for the doctor and the manager. Deceased was dead when witness reached him.
Henry James Cooper, a faller employed with the first witness, said that when their tree came away he called out to deceased and Taylor. He saw deceased struck down by the second tree. There was a strong wind blowing, which caused their tree to fall against a second tree and bring it down. It was the second tree which killed deceased.
Doctor Andrews gave evidence as to examining the body at the scene of the accident. Death was due to a dislocation of the neck, and deceased had also sustained simple fractures.
The coroner returned a verdict of accidental death and said no blame was attached to anyone

Evan Davies (6 January 1801 - 23 February 1888), also known by his bardic name Myfyr Morganwg was a Welsh bard, druid and antiquarian.
Born in Pencoed, Glamorgan, it is thought that Davies received no formal education; instead he spent his early years studying Welsh Bardic Rules and teaching himself mathematics, among other subjects. As a young man he preached in his local chapels and became a watchmaker by trade. In 1842 he rose to prominence when he and John Jones of Llangollen began openly debating the subject of temperance at a meeting in Llantrisant, Glamorgan. Before this, he would preach in chapels near to his home. It was around 1844-45 that Davies moved to Pontypridd, where he first took on the name 'Myfyr Morganwg'.
He became very interested by the revival of interest in Druidism which had swept the local area. He read heavily on the subject and concluded that Christianity was merely Druidism in a Jewish garb. Following the death of Taliesin Williams in 1847, Davies proclaimed himself archdruid, and from about 1853 he began to hold religious and druidical services near the Rocking Stone at Pontypridd. For about 25 years the practice of holding meetings at the hour of equinoxes and solstices became a Glamorgan tradition, and Davies published a number of books on druidism. Much of his Neo druidic writings were nothing more than a continuation of the 18th-century revival and thus are built largely around writings produced in the 18th century and after by second-hand sources and theorists. Nevertheless, Davies was considered by some of his contemporaries as an expert in the field.
