Sec. 972. In case of an injury to persons or property, occasioned by
a violation of any of the provisions of this act or any willful
failure to comply with any provisions of this act any owner, lessee
or agent of a mine, a right of action shall accrue to the person
injured, for any direct damage he may have sustained thereby. In
case of loss of life, by reason of such failure or willful neglect,
a right of action shall accrue to the widow, and children, or if
there be none such, then to the parents and next of kin, of the
person whose death was so caused, for like recovery of damages for
the injury they shall have sustained.

Each person who performs labor in opening or developing any coal
mine, mining coal, and labor connected therewith, shall have a lien
upon all the property of the person, firm or corporation owning,
constructing or operating such mine, for the value of such labor for
the full amount thereof, upon the same terms, as mechanic's liens
are secured and enforced. (103 O. Laws 67.)
