1Opinion of the CourtWait, J.

This is an appeal from a decree entered in accord with findings of the Industrial Accident Board that William Hill was injured while an employee of the Park School Corporation engaged in the business of that corporation and from a cause arising out of the employment. The insurer contends that Hill was an independent contractor, or an employee of such contractor, and not an employee of the assured. The findings of fact made by the board are final. This court cannot revise them if there is evidence which, as matter of law, can support them. Fitzgibbon’s Case, 230 Mass. 473, 474, and cases cited.
