Browney. Edward Carr, 65, shifter.
On 24th December 1923, Carr bruised his head through joining a girder. He worked three days after, and on the last day at work he was brought out of the pit and sent home on the ambulance. It was admitted a slight accident had occurred to Carr, but compensation was refused on a report by Dr. Leigh de Legh, who reported on 11th January, 1924, that Carr was not disabled by an accident but by heart disease.
Claim disallowed.
