He was rendered unconscious and lay face downwards across one running rail with his head close to the negative rail of the electrified system.Arthur Devere Thomas, who was acting as flagman for the protection of the workmen, saw Percival fall and at the same time heard a down train approaching the station round the curve. Realising that a signal could not be seen by the driver in time for him to stop the train, Thomas immediately jumped down from the platform to the up line and, running across two positive and two negative rails carrying 600 volts, snatched Percival up almost under the wheels of the approaching train, and held him, still unconscious, in a small recess in the wall whilst the train passed within a few inches of them. By reason of his employment, Thomas must have been fully aware of the risks he faced and he displayed conspicuous gallantry in successfully effecting the rescue of Percival.'Arthur Devere Thomas, G.C.

Harry Parsons twice entered the flue at great risk to his life, and, with the help of Ernest Cannell, Thomas Evans and John Robinson, succeeded in bringing out the three men, who had been overcome and who all unhappily lost their lives.'Harry Parsons, together with the three other men, was present at an investiture by King George V at Buckingham Palace in December 1912, when he and the others were presented with their awards.

Edward Medal (Mines), G.V.R., 1st type, bronze (George Smith.), good very fine, in case of issue E.M. London Gazette 27.6.1922 George Smith, Overman at South Kirkby Colliery, Yorshire, in joint citation with William Humphries, Deputy at the same Colliery, 'On February 11th, 1922, a workman named Creighton, employed in a seam of the South Kirkby Colliery, Yorkshire, was completely buried by a fall of roof. Several miners who were at work near the spot came to the rescue, among them Humphries and Smith. The imprisoned man's head and shoulders were soon freed, but owing to the pressure of debris on the lower part of his body and legs it was impossible to pull him clear; while, so fast as earth was removed, more slipped down in its place. The rescue party placed sleepers across the body of the imprisoned man, thus preventing his being completely engulfed by the debris, and eventually a passage was made under the sleepers over Creighton's body, which was unhurt, with the exception of one foot, which was firmly pinned down by a large stone. The foot was eventually released and the man freed after eight and half hours' work.All the men who took part in the rescue were exposed to great risk for a prolonged period, and behaved with great gallantry and devotion to duty, but Humphries and Smith were unanimously selected by their comrades as having specially distinguished themselves.'Subject to 20% VAT on Buyer’s Premium.

Edward Medal (Mines), G.V.R., 2nd type, bronze (Robert Johnston.), nearly extremely fine, in case of issue E.M. London Gazette 20.10.1931 Robert Johnston, Collier, Hedley Pit, jointly listed with 18 others, 'On the 29th September, 1930, a fall of roof occured in the Hedley Pit, South Moor, County Durham, particularly burying a hewer, Frederick Beaumont. A chargeman, Victor King, was the first to come to the rescue. He found that a small passage-way remained open by which the buried man might be reached and, with the assistance of his son Richard and John George Tarn, he immediately built two chocks of timber to keep it open. The passage was seven yards long and about two feet square and the only practicable method of rescue was for the three men to crawl along the passage-way and lie full length, two in the passage-way and one over Beaumont's body, and pass back, one at a time, the stones that were pinning him down.This perilous and arduous work was carried on for nine hours by a team of miners (including Victor King) working in relays under the direction of the manager (Walter Robert Scott) and the under-manager (Robert Reed) until at last Beaumont was released, shaken but otherwise uninjured. During the whole nine hours the roof was shifting and "trickling" and on four occasions Beaumont was almost freed when a further fall buried him again. At one time the danger of a further fall appeared so great that the manager telephoned for a doctor (Dr. Charles James Brookfield Fox) to come to the pit to amputate Beaumont's leg and so expedite his release. Fortunately - as it turned out - the doctor found it impossible to amputate in the restricted area in which Beaumont was confined, but he remained on the scene until Beaumont was rescued and examined and treated him before sending him to the surface.Shortly after Beaumont was extricated the whole of the tunnel collapsed.'Subject to 20% VAT on Buyer’s Premium.

He reached the bottom and shouted back that the other man was in a bad way and that he (Mallinson) was feeling queer and was coming back up. He collapsed on the way. A third miner who had remained at the top summoned assistance, and three volunteers, including Gibson and Miller, went to the scene. Getting no response to their calls, without hesitation, although the danger must have been apparent, Gibson, closely followed by Miller, set off down the ladder, leaving the third volunteer at the top. This man, on receiving a signal from Miller attempted to raise the hoist, but it would not function. By the time further rescue workers arrived no replies could be obtained from the men who had descended the shaft.The actions of Mallinson, in descending the shaft to the help of the sick man, and of Gibson and Miller, who went down to help both, were in the highest traditions of the mining industry.'1 of 5 Edward Medals (Mines), G.VI.R., 2nd type, bronze awarded.Subject to 20% VAT on Buyer’s Premium.

A Fine Edward Medal (Industry) and Order of Industrial Heroism Group of Three to Wilfred Beasley, For His Gallant Attempts to Save Life, Despite Having to Battle Against Temperatures of Up to 3,000 Degrees Centigrade, During A Factory Explosion in Widnes, 16.11.1946a) Edward Medal (Industry), G.VI.R, 1st type, bronze (Wilfred Beasley, High Speed Alloys Ltd. Widnes, 16th Nov. 1946)b) Liverpool Shipwreck and Humane Society General Medal, silver (To Wilfred Beasley, For Gallant Service, 16/11/1946.), with integral top riband bucklec) Daily Herald Order of Industrial Heroism (To Wilfred Beasley 23rd January 1947), generally very fine, all in cases of issue (3) E.M. London Gazette 11.3.1947 Wilfred Beasley, Process Chargehand, High Speed Alloys Ltd, 'On the 16th November, 1946, an explosion, followed by fire, occurred in the ferro-mixing department of High Speed Alloys, Limited, Widnes. In this department there is a platform above the row of mixers; the charges are introduced into the mixers by tipping from steel barrows into hopper openings on the platform; the barrows are lifted from the floor position on the platform by an overhead crane, the base of the cabin of which passes about six feet above the hoppers. At the time of the accident Edward Nolan aged 17 was driving the crane and was in the act of hoisting a barrow of Wolframite when a sheet of flame shot out from the hopper, enveloping the cabin and setting fire to his clothing. He attempted to move the crane back to an access platform at the end of the shop but the crane stopped a few feet short. Intense thermit reaction went on inside the mixer; the temperature of such a reaction is estimated at between 2,000-3,000 degrees centrigrade. The room speedily filled with smoke and everything in the neighbourhood of the mixer was set on fire.Wilfred Beasley, aged 53, a process chargehand, realising that the charge mixer had exploded, and fearing for the safety of other workmen, rushed into the mixing room only to be driven back by fire and fumes. He re-entered the building through a side door and hearing cries for help groped his way to the approach ladder leading to the crane landing stage. At the fourth attempt he succeeded in reaching the landing stage some 15 feet from the ground and by holding on to a support by one hand succeeded in locating the crane cabin, which with a considerable effort he pulled to within two feet of its berth. He found Nolan in the cabin and with great difficulty managed to bring him halfway down the approach ladder, when frantic with his injuries Nolan struggled violently and fell, being caught by someone at the base of the ladder. Apart from the risk of falling which was intensified by dense smoke, there was also the risk of burns; the rescuer was exposed to danger for a period of about 10 minutes, and was temporarily overcome when he reached the ground.Nolan died later in hospital of his injuries. At the inquest the Coroner complimented Beasley on his gallant action.'Beasley was also presented with the Daily Herald Order of Industrial Heroism at Widnes, 23.1.1947. He received a certificate and medal from the Liverpool Shipwreck and Humane Society; and his Managing Director presented him with a gold watch, and his wife with a cheque.Subject to 20% VAT on Buyer’s Premium.

At meeting of the Court of Directors of the H.E.I.C., 13.9.1848, it was 'Resolved unanimously, that this Court do present to Major Edwardes a Gold Medal, in testimony of their high approbation of the important services rendered by him in raising and organising a large Force in a foreign territory under circumstances of the greatest difficulty; in wresting, within a very brief period, and extensive tract of country from the power of the rebels; in skilfully combining his forces with those of an ally; and in signally defeating the troops of the enemy in two pitched battles; thus evincing the possession, in the flower of his youth, of all those qualities which form and ennoble the character of the British Officer.' Edwardes was presented with his gold medal by the Chairman of the Court of Directors in February 1851; after his death in 1865 specimens of the medal were issued in silver-gilt and bronze as a memorial to him; the silver-gilt specimens are usually found contained in glazed lunettes.Subject to 20% VAT on Buyer’s Premium.
