Dubuque, Iowa, Sept. 7, 1915.
To the Honorable Mayor and City
Council of the City of Dubuque:
Gentlemen— George E. Beyer until
recently employed as a lieutenant in
the City fire department and being
connected with Engine House No. 6,
on Aug. 17th last was thrown from a
fire truck, receiving severe injuries
which on Aug. 21st caused his death.
Mr. Beyer was engaged as a fireman
and received his injuries while act-
ing in that capacity and, under the
Workmen's Compensation Act, his de-
pendents become entitled to the com-
pensation as therein provided. I
have, therefor, prepared a memoran-
dum of settlement with Amanda
B'eyer, the widow of said deceased,
Which has been submitted to the In-
dustrial Commissioner of the State
and received his approval. The set-
tlement effected, which is in strict ac-
cordance with the State Law, is as
follows:
George Beyer at the time of his
death was receiving the sum of $76.00
a month, making his average annual
earnings $912.00. This sum divided
by fifty -two weeks, give3 the average
weekly earnings of deceased, amount-
ing to $17.54 a week. The law pro-
vides that in case of death a total
dependent shall receive one -half of
the average weekly earnings for a
period of three hundred weeks, in this
case being the sum of $8.77 for three
hundred weeks, or a total sum of
$2,631.00. Amanda Bey•.r has agreed
tnat her payments shall be made to
her monthly, making a sum due her
each month of $35.08.
You will therefore instruct your
City Auditor to place the name of
Amanda 3eyer upon his list of per-
sons entitled to compensation under
this law and have a warrant drawn on
the 21st of each month in the sum
of $35.08 until the whole period of
three hundred weeks has been paid,
the first warrant to be dated on the
21st of September, 1915 and paid aft-
er the first meeting in October follow-
ing, each warrant to be paid after the
first meeting of the Ci +y Council in
each month at which time said Coun-
cil acts upon the report of the City
Audttor.
Respectfully submitted,
M. H. CZIZEK,
City Attorney.
On motion of Ald. Wallis the report
of the City Attorney was approved
and the City Auditor instructed ac-
cordingly.
