Opinion:
Deceased employee worked on ice wagon. Death resulted from an infection claimed to have been caused by a scratch on his elbow.

The other question is as to the dependency of the father and mother. Deceased gave all of his earnings to his parents. Award unanimously affirmed, with costs to the State Industrial Board.
