Description
W. B. Peniston, employe-respondent, is a long-time resident of the city of Marshall, this state, and for many years served as a member of its police department. On January 28, 1930, while so employed, he suffered an accidental injury arising out of and in the course of his employment. At that time and until December 5, 1932, relator Maryland Casualty Company was the insurer of the citys liability as employer. Thereafter the Standard Accident Insurance Company became such. Peniston made no application for compensation at the time of receiving the injury nor for some months thereafter. His injury was caused by a fall whereby his right foot came in contact with a curb in the city. Instead of calling for and receiving medical aid, he took care of the injured member himself, assisted by his wife and son. They dressed the foot frequently, usually once a day, but he continued his work until May, 1930, when his condition became such that he had to call for medical aid, and his family doctor, B. C. Ford, was called upon to render professional service. He treated Peniston over a period of time, about a month, from May 14 to June 9, at which time Peniston was sufficiently improved so that he returned to work. From August 30 to October 27 he was again incapacitated because of the injuries first mentioned. Dr. Ford at that time diagnosed his case as one of acute osteomyelitis. Toward the end of October Penistons condition had sufficiently improved so that he was able to return to his work and continued same until January 4, 1933. During all of the intervening time, however, he had more or less trouble with his foot. It required frequent dressing, and there was an almost constant discharge of pus; but, as stated, he was on the job performing his regular work and drawing his regular pay.
