REID, Judge.
Plaintiff, Joseph Milligan, brought this suit for workmen’s compensation benefits against his employer’s insurer, Fidelity and Casualty Company of New York. He was an employee of Hebert Brothers Engineers of Plaquemine, Louisiana, at the time of his injury.
Plaintiff’s alleged injury was a right inguinal hernia as a result of a slip and fall accident while acting within the scope of his employment with Hebert Brothers. He sought total, permanent disability, less the credit of $1487.50 which had been paid on his compensation. He claims that the hernia recurred three times.
