In the Matter of the Claim of LILLIAN DUFFY, Respondent, against GIRARD TRUST CO. et al., Appellants. WORKMEN'S COMPENSATION BOARD, Respondent.

The decedent lived with his mother and father in a four-room apartment. The father was a disabled veteran and his only income was a pension of $60 a month. At the time of her son's death the mother was earning $32.25 a week. There is evidence to indicate that the expenses of the household exceeded to quite an extent the total amount of income received by the mother plus the amount the father was able to contribute and the proof also indicates that the deceased son contributed at least $15 per week to the maintenance of the household. The board's finding of partial dependency in favor of the claimant-respondent is sustained by the evidence. Award unanimously affirmed, with costs to the Workmen's Compensation Board.
