    On the 25th of Sep 1923 there occurred a major mine disaster when early that morning the Redding Colliery No.23 pit flooded. A damhead holding back the water from old workings higher up the brae broke. Sixty six men were trapped, including Alex. Twenty one men were rescued through a disused shaft. After 9 days entombment another 5 were rescued. No more were saved. Alex's body was recovered from the Bar Run Section on the 7th/8th of Nov. So this became the date of death. The official cause of death was asphyxiation by drowning. Other relations of Alex were also involved with the disaster
