The 38-year-old miner leaves his wife and six children. ¢ According to mine manager Tim Cawley, Sauve -had been working on the 600 level of the Christopher when he was sent to work on the 500. Sauve made his way to. the lower level using a ladder iin a manway. i Apparently Sauve reached the bottom of the manway, then tried to hitch a ride on an approaching electric locomotive which was hauling six one-ton ore trucks. The driver of the train, Lucien Plaunt, was standing on one side of the small platform at the front of the locomotive. Mr. Cawley said that it appears that Sauve forgot that there is a protuding ore chute just past the recessed manway. He jumped on to the locomotive. but was. smashed into the side of the ore chute. Sauve suffered massive internal injuries and died within an hour. He is survived by his wife and six children. They are Darlene, 16; Norman, 14; Freddy, 12; Linda, eight; Wendy, five; and Kim, one year.
