Description

From 1947 until 1954 the claimant-appellant, Amos O. Frisbie, worked for the respondent Sunshine Mining Company as an underground
miner. Upon learning in 1954 that the appellant was suffering from grade three silicosis, the respondent transferred him to
surface work as boiler tender and watchman. The appellant worked the night shift, working two shifts per week as a watchman
and at other times tending the boilers. As watchman, it was his duty to tour the plant at various intervals throughout the
night. On March 11, 1966 the appellant left work due to his severe respiratory problem, which was diagnosed by physicians as silicosis
complicated by several related factors. Appellant suffered at least two serious lung collapses and various other medical problems.
Following his disability, and prior to his formal retirement in November 1966, the appellant received certain disability benefits
pursuant to a group insurance policy maintained by joint contribution of miners and the respondent. After these benefits were
exhausted in September 1966, and following a serious lung collapse in December of that year, the appellant attempted to meet
with officials of the Sunshine Mining Company in regard to obtaining additional compensation for his disability. It appears
from the record that there were several communications between appellant and respondent and at least two meetings were held
to discuss appellant's request for compensation. These meetings culminated in an offer of settlement proposed by the company
in July 1967. Appellant, however, rejected the offer and finally filed his claim for compensation with the Industrial Accident
Board on September 7, 1967.
