Fatal Pit Accident Near Dunfermline - Two Miners Killed - Yesterday morning two miners, named George and Robert Condie, father and son, were killed in a pit at Kingseat Colliery, between two and three miles north-east of Dunfermline. They had just got down the pit, and were preparing for their work, when a portion of the roof gave way and fell upon them, killing them instantaneously. The younger was so much bruised, it is reported, that his features were scarcely recognisable. They had not left their home above an hour when their corpses were brought in. [The Dundee Courier & Argus 11 September 1873]
