Dailey v. Russann Lumber Co.
Tennessee Supreme Court
1Opinion of the Court
OPINION
HENRY, Justice.
In this workmen’s compensation action the Trial Judge awarded full statutory benefits to the widow of a deceased workman. Reviewing the case under the familiar material evidence standard, we affirm the judgment.
I
The deceased workman was employed as a truck driver for Russann Lumber Company. On the day of his death he reported for work at 6:54 a.m. The undisputed evidence shows that he was in apparent good health and good spirits and voiced no complaint. He was forty-six years old at the time and his prior medical history was such that he did not even have a family doctor.
