Description
Workmen's Compensation Commission, in a death claim, determined that the decedent had not sustained an accidental injury arising out of and in the course of his employment and declined to make an award. This occurred after a single commissioner had approved the demand, but the approving commissioner Joined the other two in the final action. Circuit court reversed, believing there was no substantial evidence to support the commission's order. W. J. Slaughter's death occurred Tuesday morning, April 18, 1950. The employer's son, Macel Baker, a civil engineer, was temporarily acting as foreman in respect of work engaged in by a crew of men who were transported fifteen or sixteen miles to woodlands where trees were being girdled. Girdling involved the use of a three-pound axe in cutting around the tree. In width the gash would be about three inches, but deep enough to go through the bark and penetrate the sapwood an estimated inch and a half. The purpose was to deaden the trees. Slaughter had been employed by Baker for six months.
