Chief Judge Hedrick
concurring in result.
I concur in the decision of the majority vacating the decision of the Industrial Commission. The Commission erroneously denied plaintiffs’ claim on the grounds that the evidence failed to disclose any “negligent act” by any defendant employee named. I disagree with the majority’s efforts to do more than vacate the decision of the Commission and remand for a new hearing. I vote to remand to the Industrial Commission for a new hearing, new findings and conclusions and for a decision in accordance with the law relative to G.S. 143-291, as amended. It is for the Commission, not the appellate Court, to make findings of fact from the evidence given in the case.
