Per Curiam, The only question before the referee and the compensation board, which was one of fact, was as to the relation which the husband of the appellee sustained to the appellant at the time he was killed. The finding of the board was that he was an employee, and not an independent contractor, as the defendant contended. This finding is conclusive: Messinger v. Lehigh Valley E. B.

UpLaw has not yet analyzed Belmonte v. Connor. The absence of a flag is not a finding that it is good law.
