Non-Fatal Cases.

1497. East Hetton. Shadrack West, 70, shifter.

Had his back bruised through an eight foot baulk falling on him from the roof on 17th August, 1913. The Owners at the Committee on 13th September, 1915, asked for a review on the grounds that the incapacity was only partly due to accident and withdrew their application. West has been in receipt of full compensation (13/10) up to 17th November, 1922, when the Owners gave notice to apply for a reduction on the grounds of old age (79).

Compensation was stopped altogether on 2nd December, and West asked for it to be restored.

Full compensation with War addition restored.
