Before State Industrial Board, Respondent. Leo Chambers, Respondent, v. Thomas Roulston, Inc., and Another, Appellants.

Headnote

Workmen’s compensation — evidence and findings should show precise nature and extent of disfigurement.
Appeal from an award of the State Industrial Board made on October 3, 1924.

The evidence failed to show and the findings omit to state the precise nature and extent of the disfigurement found. Without such evidence and such a finding we are unable to say that the disfigurement was “ serious ” and “ permanent,” and, therefore, cannot affirm the award. All concur. Award reversed and claim remitted, with costs against the State Industrial Board to abide the event.
