Chilton. George Million, 60, hewer.
On 2nd April, 1919, this man slipped when lifting a stone and strained himself. Full compensation was paid until he ultimately commenced light work whitewashing at the shaft bottom, and he continued at such until July, 1925, when the colliery closed down. The case was before the Arbitration Committee on 21st December, 1925, when he was awarded compensation at the reduced rate of 12/- per week. He then commenced light work and continued at such till 28th February, 1926, when he again fell off.
The management refused to pay compensation and the case was referred to the Official Medical Referee (Dr. Gordon Bell) who reported on 20th May, 1926, as follows :—
1. "The said George Million is suffering from pain in the left inguinal region from strain of the inner pillar of the left inguinal ring, and his condition is such that he is unfit for work as a coal hewer but is fit for shift work such as he has been doing up till February, 1926.
2. The incapacity of the said George Million is due to the accident of 2nd April, 1919."
On the above report compensation is being paid at the reduced rate of 7/6 per week. Million is still off work and now claims full compensation.
Awarded compensation at the reduced rate applicable.
