5089. Silksworth. Matthew Davison, 58, hewer.
Had his right hand injured by a fall of stone on the 28th August, 1909. He was paid full compensation until 27th February, 1922, when the War addition was stopped. At the Arbitration Committee on 11th September, 1922, the War addition was restored, and on 28th October, compensation was reduced to 6/- per week on the grounds that old age was principally the cause of Davison's inability to work.
Awarded full compensation.
