Williams v. Armour Fertilizer Works, Inc.

McBRIDE, Judge.

Victor Williams was killed on February 28, 1948, while working within the course and scope of his employment with defendant, Armour Fertilizer Works, Inc. His widow, Jeneva Bernard Williams, from whom he had been extra-judicially separated for 25 years, claiming that she was actually dependent upon Williams for support, brought this suit against defendant under the provisions of Act 20 of 1914, as amended, seeking to recover 300 weeks compensation at the rate of 37% per cent of the weekly wages earned by Williams. Her suit was dismissed by the lower court, and she has appealed.
