She also produced testimony of certain witnesses who testified to seeing a cut upon the finger of deceased. Award of death benefits was denied upon the ground that the hearsay declarations of the deceased were not sufficiently corroborated. Decision unanimously affirmed. Present — Hill, P. J., Rhodes, McNamee, Crapser and Heffernan, JJ.
