freak accident?

The article states that the Huskar pit disaster was "a freak accident". It was hardly that; the cmhrc document given as a source here (80-odd pages covering a 10 year period) lists half-a-dozen pit disasters in 1838 alone, with over 100 fatalities and more than 40 of them children. Huskar just caught the public's attention, that's all. I've amended the article accordingly. Swanny18 (talk) 16:18, 12 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
