Gladys Ohlsen v. J.G. Dill Company and

Certiorari to review an order of the industrial commission awarding compensation to petitioner for the accidental death of Alvin H. Ohlsen, her husband. The referee found against petitioner. Upon appeal to the commission, it reversed the referee's decision and awarded compensation. Here, relators contend that the evidence does not sustain the finding that decedent's accidental death occurred within the scope of his employment and arose out of it. Decedent was drowned about 11:30 a.m. on May 15, 1944, while fishing in the Des Moines River near Windom, Minnesota. He was then employed by relator J.G. Dill Company, a Minnesota corporation, hereinafter referred to as the employer, as manager of its elevator at Windom, a position he had held for about 18 months before his death.
