LAWS OF MARYLAND. [CH. 368

4. Temporary partial disability. In case of temporary
partial disability, except the particular cases mentioned in
subdivision three of this section, an injured employe shall re-
ceive fifty per centum of the difference between his average
weekly wages and his wage earning capacity thereafter in the
same employment or otherwise, if less than before the accident,
during the continuance of such partial disability, but not in
excess of three thousand five hundred dollars, except as other-
wise provided in this article.

In case the injury causes death within the period of two
years, the benefits shall be in the amounts and to the persons
following:

If there be no dependents, the disbursements shall be lim-
ited to the expenses provided for in Section thirty-seven here-
of.

If there are wholly dependent persons at the time of the
death, the payment shall be fifty per cent, of the average week-
ly wages, and to continue for the remainder of the period be-
tween the date of the death and eight years after the date of
the injury, and not to amount to more than a maximum of
four thousand two hundred and fifty dollars, nor less than a
minimum of one thousand dollars.

If there are partly dependent persons at the time of the
death, the payment shall be fifty per cent, of the average week-
ly wages, and to continue for all or such portion of the period
of eight years after the date of the injury, as the Commission
in each may determine, and not to amount to more than a
maximum of three thousand dollars.

The following persons shall be presumed to be wholly de-
pendent for support upon a deceased employe: A wife or in-
valid husband ("invalid" meaning one physically or mentally
incapacitated from earning), a child or children under the age
of sixteen years (or over said age if physically or mentally
incapacitated from earning) living with or dependent upon the
parent at the time of the injury or death.

In all other cases, questions of dependency, in whole or in
part, shall be determined in accordance with the facts in each
particular case existing at the time of the injury resulting in
death of such employe, but no person shall be considered as
dependent unless such person be a father, mother, grandfather,
grandmother, stepchild or grandchild, or brother or sister of
the deceased employe, including those otherwise specified in
this section.
