   Pee CuRiam.

It has been uniformly held by this Court that tbe findings of fact of tbe Industrial Commission, if supported by evidence, are conclusive upon appeal. Tbe Full Commission found that the death of Tbomas H. Carter was not proximately caused by an injury by accident arising out of nor in tbe course of bis regular employment, and that tbe illness from which be died did not result naturally and unavoidably from an accident.

There was evidence to support this finding. Hence, tbe judgment must be

Affirmed.
