He was lifting milk bottles which exertion caused an ulcer to break open and for which he was operated upon at once and died as a result of the operation. The evidence supports the finding of accidental injury. Award unanimously affirmed, with costs to the State Industrial Board. Present — Hill, P. J., Crapser, Heffernan, Sehenek and Foster, JJ.
