In the Matter of the Claim of Lillian Conrad, Respondent, against Charles H. Vollmer et al., Appellants. Workmen’s Compensation Board, Respondent.

Appeal by the employer and insurance carrier from a decision and award of death benefits made by the Workmen’s Compensation Board to claimant as widow. The only question for review is whether the finding that deceased left claimant surviving him as his lawful widow, finds support in the evidence. There is ample evidence of a valid common-law. marriage contracted prior to 1933. Decision and award affirmed, with costs to the Workmen’s Compensation Board. All concur.
