Opinion by
Dithkich, J.,
Benjamin F. Motley died November 12, 1947, as the result of injuries accidentally sustained in the course of his employment with the C. F. Braun Construction Company, one of the defendants. Claiming to be decedent’s dependent widow, Martha C. Motley petitioned for an award of compensation under the Workmen’s Compensation Act. After a hearing at which the only testimony given was that of the claimant, the referee disallowed the claim. The Board affirmed the referee, but on appeal the court below reversed the Board and entered judgment for claimant.
