Match Report
The Times, Tuesday,
15 March 1910 |
England beat Wales at Cardiff
yesterday by one goal to none. On the whole the victory was deserved,
but the Welshmen put up a splendid fight. The weather was very fine and
the ground in excellent condition, and there were nearly 20,000
spectators... From first to last the match
was played at a great pace.

In Other News....
It was on 14 March
1910 that the inquest opened into the Clydach Vale flood disaster of
three days earlier in the Rhondda Valley, when a torrent of water,
collecting mud and rubble on its way, had surged down a mountainside
into the village, demolishing eleven houses and a shop, before hitting
the local school. One woman and five children were killed and it was
only the good fortune that it coincided with miners passing the school
at the end of their shift that they were able to quickly react and help
save the lives of over 950 children. It was discovered that a dam at the
mouth of a disused colliery level had burst. |
