Durham Miners' Association
Compensation Department
Report of Proceedings
of
Arbitration Committee Meeting
held in the
The Coal Trade Offices, Newcastle-on-Tyne
On December 21st 1926
Official Medical Referee Cases.
Ryhope. Ryhope Charles Smith.
1. "The said Ryhope Charles Smith to-day has some tremors of the hands and neck muscles which are characteristic of Miners' Nystagmus. I find to-day no Nystagmus, and his condition is such that he is not suitable for coal hewing as the disease is certain to recur if he starts coal hewing. In my opinion he is able to do any light work that does not involve much stooping.
2. The incapacity of the said Ryhope Charles Smith is partial and is entirely due to Miners' Nystagmus.
Dated this 15th day of November, 1926.
(Signed) A. S. PERCIVAL,
Medical Referee."
