APPENDIX. I. NOTES OE CASES, &c. The Acts set forth in Parts I. and III. having repealed the previous statutes, it is thought convenient to state here, under suitable heads, the principal cases decided under those statutes, and their application to the new Acts— A. Note to Section 8 of the Friendly Societies Act, 1875. By this section friendly societies may he registered, pro viding for relief “during sickness or other infirmity, whether bodily or mental.” It will still be open to societies, if they think fit, to restrain the payment of sick pay to cases not involving mental infirmity, but that must be done by express provision in a rule. Where nothing is said to the contrary in the rules, a society is liable to pay sick allow ance in cases of insanity. This is shown by the following case, determined under 18 & 19 Yict. c. 63 :— Burton, app., Eyden, resp. Friendly Society—“ Sickness”—Insanity. [Law Eep. 8 Q. B. 295.] By the rules of a friendly society, after payment of a year’s subscription, any member sliali receive 8s. per week during any sickness or accident that may befall him, unless by rioting or drunkenness:—Held, that insanity was “sick ness” within the meaning of the society’s rules. Case stated by the justices of Northamptonshire under 20 & 21 Viet. c. 43.
