1Opinion of the CourtFoster, J.
This is a death claim under the Workmen’s Compensation Law. The Referee disallowed the claim on the ground that the accident did not arise out of and in the course of the employment. A majority of a board panel (three members) affirmed the decision of the Referee on the ground that the decedent had abandoned Ms employment. One member dissented. The Appellate Division with one dissent reversed the board, on the ground there was no substantial evidence to sustain the determination of the board, and remitted the claim. On appeal to this court, appellants filed a stipulation for order absolute.
