It is said that the 4-year-old Samuel Jones died when he fell into the hole and went missing on Saturday. The hole was in a neighbor's yard. It could take up to a whole day for miners to safely retrieve the boy's body from the well. He was discovered by a detective who shined a flashlight down the hole.
