OPINION TEXT STARTS HERE
Appeal from an order of the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court in the Third Judicial Department (228 App. Div. 740, 238 N. Y. S. 807), entered January 24, 1930, affirming an award of the State Industrial Board made under the Workmen's Compensation Law (Consol. Laws, c. 67). Claimant, in the course of his employment, received an injury to his right foot. Thereafter, while walking with a crutch, he slipped and fell, fracturing his left hip. An award for the second injury was resisted on the ground that there was no causal relation between the first and second accidents.
Newell H. Timerman, of Buffalo, for appellants.
Hamilton Ward, Atty. Gen. (E. C. Aiken, Dep. Atty. Gen., of counsel), for respondent.
Order affirmed, with costs.
LEHMAN, J., not sitting.
