COAL MINES IDLE
DAMAGE AT SEDDONVILLE Press Association WESTPORT, Friday. In Seddonville today one sees a scene of desolation. Only one brick chimney remains standing. Hardly a house has its tank left. A number of houses are off the piles, and stand on the ground. The bins and flumings of the various mines are badly damaged, and will take some weeks to repair. All around, the hills have slipped, and where before there were bushclad faces now stand huge bare slips. During this trying time everyone has worked for the common good, and committees have been formed to assess the damage and give assistance to those needing it.
