Donohue for injur- fes received while at work in the Po- nemah Mills. The finding was filed in the office of the superior court clerk on_Friday. The case was heard in the commis- sioner’s office in the Central buflding fon Monday morning, Oct. 2, at 10.30 o'clock. The claimant was a_warper tender in the employ of the Ponemah Mills at Taftville and on May 18 she received an injury which caused the loss of two-thirds of the index finger, and the complete loss of the second finger of the right hand as well as an injury to the thumb and third finger of the same hand. On June 2 a voluntary agreement was made between the parties, where the claimant was to receive com- pensation during the disability caused by the injuries to the thumb and third finger, at the expiration of which com- pensation should be continued at the rate of $5 weekly for 58 weeks for specific injury. At the hearing it was found that a mistake had been made by the person who filled out the dia- gram, which is used to show the ex- tent 0f amputations, which caused the insurance company to figure the com- ion to which the claimant was led for specific injuries as 58 weeks, whereas it should have read 65 The original agreement of index finger and two- thirds of middle finger” and was proved and filed w the superior court. The finding made Is, for the reasons given, for the purpose of de- ng void the voluntary de and is intended to replace it.

It is found that the claimant is en- titled to compensation for 55 1-3 weoks for specific injuries to index and middle fingers. It is found also that the claimant is entitled to com- pensation for 11 weeks for disability to thumb, the disability resulting from the injury to the third finger not cov- ering a longer period, this estimate being dependent upon the statement of the attending physiclan under date of Sept. 9th, in which he said: “This is to certify that in the case of Miss Ida Houle, the laceration of her thumb proved to be very obstinate and was not entirely healed v three months from date of Miss Houle claimed eleven weeks' compensation because of the injury to her thumb and it is found that she is entitled to the same, as even at the time of the hearing, although the wound had healed, it was very sensi- ble and she would even then be un- able to return to her duties as warper, because of this tenderness. It is also found, for the reasons given by both the claimant and her that it is just and necess ba would be a weeks at the rate of five dollars week which commuted at 4 per cent. ould amount to $242.67. It was ordered that the respondents pay to the claimant Ida Houle, a min or, through her father, Charl the sum of $242.07, which shall stitute a full and complete settlement.
