BROWN, Justice.

Robert Martin, for forty-four years a nonuniformed employee of the City of Little Rock, instituted this action to recover disability retirement benefits as provided by city ordinances. The chancellor awarded Martin 44.3 months disability pay and the City appeals. The City here contends that the disability payment authorized by the ordinances is a mere gratuity to be paid a disabled employee only if the City adjudged the payment to be warranted.
