Title	Local Appeal Tribunal case file for Simeon Hitchman, aged 39, Coal Filler at Glapwell
Date	1952
Description	Date of birth: 02/11/1912 Marital status: Not given Address: 65 Coniston Road, Newbold Moor, Chesterfield Type of benefit claimed: Special Hardship Allowance Type of injury: Injury - knee Further information: Hitchman injured his knee when he slipped whilst travelling to work. The tribunal allowed the claim but this was disputed in a letter addressed to Hitchman by the Clerk to the Tribunal on 21 August 1952, which asserted that 'further evidence has been received which suggests that the Local Tribunal's decision was incorrect.' The evidence appears to be confirmation of dates during which Hitchman was employed as a coal filler at Glapwell Colliery supplied by the colliery itself, which appear to contradict information presented at the tribunal. The new hearing was scheduled for 28 August 1952 but there is no official record of the tribunal's final decision.
