REGULATIONS AFFECTING SEAMEN 33

473, 474); and the Laws of the Hanse Towns (arts. 39, 40, 45, 46;
1614, t. 14, arts. 1, 8, 2-2 Pardess 519, 521, 556). He receives full
wages for the whole voyage because the disability is supposed to have
continued until the termination of the voyage. (See opinion by J.
Davis in Natterstrom v. The Hazard, Bee 441, Fed. Case No. 10055.)
This principle of general maritime law has been adopted by several
countries. * (See French Ordinances, liv. 3, tit. 4; Des Loyers des
Matelots, art. 11-4, Pardess 366; Code de Commerce, art. 262; L'Ord
de la Marine, liv. 3, tit. 4, art. 11; England, Chandler ». Grieves
(1792), 2 H. BL. 606, note (a); see Abbot, Merchant Ship, 14th Ed.,
London, 1901, p. 250.) This principle of maritime law has been
adopted in the United States.
The general maritime principle that a seaman injured in the performance
 of his duties is entitled to receive full wages at least to the
end of the voyage has been construed to include wages to the end of
the voyage of the ship whether he remains on board or is left in a
foreign port. (See George Ticknor Curtis's Treatise on the Rights
and Duties of Merchant Seamen, Boston, 1841, page 290.)
