Harton. Henry Walton.
1. "The said H. Walton is suffering from a scar extending along the length of the index finger which prevents the movement and flexibility of that finger. (When I examined him on the first of May, 1922, he told me he had lost the middle finger of the same hand some years before) and his condition is such that he is unfit for his ordinary work as a stone worker. He is fit for work which does not require a strong grip of the right hand.
2. The incapacity of the said H. Walton is due to the accident.
Dated this 16th day of December, 1926.
(Signed) JOHN CLAY,
Medical Referee."
