McKay, of 23iSpalding street, for the death of her husband, Charles J. Mc- Kay,: Comvensation Commissigner James J. Donohue filed his finding on Monday. The b was held on August 10th. ‘It is found that -Mer. McKay was injured on June 2nd and his death occurred on June 11th, 1915, and this his injury arose out of and in the course of his employment. His widow is awarded as compensai the sum of $10 weekly for a period of 312 weeks, together with $100 for bur- ial ‘expenses, the medical, surgical'and hospital expenses also to be peld.by the respondent. The commissioner’s memorandurh of decision is as follows: In finding for the claimant in .the present case the question which must be decided Did the injury arise out of and in the course of his sm- i which he makes his credits. which a rather heavy book and inconveni- to carry, but does so fn his pri- memorandum and transfers it as as he reached his home. an agent starts out to make two three collections on cases where he cannot collect in the day time; it is very reasonable to conclude that he is not going to carry around this cumbersome book for the sake crediting up a_ very small amount 8f money, and while it may be a rule to carry this collection book, it is a rule which is undoubtedly broken by every agent as often as necessity de- mands it, for whenever an agent is offered money, whether he has his book with him or not, it is not expected that he will refuse it, and many a collec- tion on industrial insurance has to be made on the street and at a time when nobody is expecting a collection can be made. On His Way to Greeneville. On the night in question, June 24, McKay had collected insurance from Mrs. Jahn of Fox Hill; he was in her house, leaving the door as the clock struck seven, as she stated in her testimony. Fox Hill is in close proxi- mity to the town of Preston, where Pouquetanuck is located, d it as ¢ one of the sections in which McKay | ‘was expected to collect. The distance from Mrs. Jahn's home to the place where Mr. McKay received his injury is somewhat less than a mile, and it ‘would appear that McKay went direct- ly from Mrs. Jahn's home to the Mar- guerite Building. his purpose being to collect insurance from another party in Greeneville, one James Quinn, who had agreed to pay him on the night in question if he would call at his home for the money. It appears from the coroner’s finding that McKay was about to board a car and the testimony tends to show for the purpese of ful- filling an agreement which he had made with Quinn to collect the insur- ance in question. Was Out to Collect Insurance. L fact that Mr. McKay had col- lected insurance from Mrs. Jahn, and had gone to the trolley to beard it for Greeneville to meet Quinm by an| asreed @ppointment, shows conclusiye- Iy that McKay was out for the purpose of collecting insurance for the com- and that he received an Injury arose out of and in the course of _his employment, which injury re- sulted in his death. . Injury in Course of Employment. ‘While there is no claim of any ser ent that the injury must be “pecula to the employment and not common t the neighborhcod,” that statement In itself unqualified or unexplained would be very far from the proper test of an “Injury arising out of and in the| course of employment”. TNe injury must be incidental to the character of the business, and in the present in- Ployment?. As the Metropolitan Life Insurance company is a company which trans- acts industrial insurance, together with ordinary and other forms, it is expected that an agent in their ém- ploy is on duty a very large part of his time; in fact, there are no bours specified when he shall or shall not work. He is entitled to and allowed to collect and write insurance policies and_solicit for business at any hour of the day or night that may best suit the convenience of himselt and ‘the prospective candidate for insurance. Accident in Main Street. According to the finding of the cor- oner (and his finding was admitted in the testimony) it appears that “said Charles J. McKay died in the town of Norwich on the 11th day of June, 1915, from hemorrhage of the brain due to fracture of the skull. Said Charles J. McKay was in the highway at the junction of Main and North Main Streets, Norwich, at about 7.17 p. m. of June 2nd, 1915, walking from the sidewalk at the northwesterly corner of the Marguerite bullding, toward the car track, having signalled the mo- tor man of the electric_car that had left Franklin square at 7.15 p. m. that was approaching. He was coming toward the electric car diagonally across the street and had reached a point five or six feet from the ear track when an automobile operated by Willlam H. Buckley of Baltic, Conn. came along, going northerly, Mr. Buck- ley occupvine the front seat alone and driving the car, ‘According 1o the statement of Wil- llam H, Duckley he did not see Mc- Kay_uAitil he was within 30 feet of him” and then in his effort to pass McKay he struck him with the au- tomobile. McKay was dragged some ten_or fifteen feet, and when the au- tomobile was brought to. a standstill he was taken out from under the for- ward end unconscious and bieeding from a wound on the back of his head,] according to the coroner's finding. Mr. McKay was then taken to the Backus hospital and lived untjl twenty min- utes to seven a m. June 11th, 1915 Had Signalled to Car. In the coroners findin~ ‘¢ annears that McKay-had signalled the motor- man '6f the-electric car and in anothe: place. it states McKar was in the highway for the purpose of board- ing an electrio car, all of which would tend to show that there was no ques- tion in the mind of the coroner but what McKay was at the place where he received his injury for the pur- pose df taking & car which was going toward Greeneville at the time, Certain Sections to Each Agent. For the convenience of the agents and to facilitate their collections and to_do it with greater dispatch, the different agents are assigned to cer- tain sections of the city in which to collect. McKay's district consisted of the Wast Side and he also had a numi- ber of collections to make in Poque- tanuck and the neighboring territory which could be most easily reached by him. This system of the agents col- lecting in certain districts is mot a hard and fast rule, so that an agent is not restricted from writing new business in other sections of the city outside of the district allotted to him; in fact, he can write business any- where, but In order to hive collections more_conveniently made, after a cer- tain specified time, the business is transferred to-the agent in that dis- trict, in _case of the removal of &n insured from one district to another, if such can be done conveniently, but and as said before they are not hard son every agent is collecting in some other agent's territory at times. It is customary for agents to credit up the amount which they colleet from policyholders on a book which the insured has at his or her home, and also to credit it on their own book, which is a fairly good sized book. during the time of making his reguldr collections, but there are times i and fast rules, 5o that for some rea-: and generally carried by an agent' stance the character of Mr. McKay's business was that of going from house to house undergoing a hazard continu- ously while engaged in this work, and undergoing such dangers as ultimate- 1y_caused his death. It might be well and of advantage to quote the words of Chief Justice Rugg In the famous MoNicol case Where he defines the words “injury arising out employment” It is not easy nor mecessary to the determination -of the case at bar to Sive a comprehensive definition of these words (personal injury arising out of and in the course of his em- ployment) which shall accurately in- clude all cases embraced within the act and with precision exclude those outside its terms. It is sufficlent to say that an injury is received ‘in the course of the employment when it comes while the workman is doing the there are exceptions to all these rules.|duty which he is employed to perform. 1t arises ‘out of’ the employment when there is apparent to the rational mind upon consideration of all the circum- || stances a causal connection between the conditions under which the work is required to be performed and the Tesulting infury. * * * It meed not to have been foreseen or expected, but after the event it must appear to have had fts origin in the Yisk connected with the employment and to have flowed from that source as & rational consequence.
