Description

The principal question in this Workmens Compensation appeal is the admissibility of a hearsay statement by an employee to his wife shortly before his death. The claimant, the appellee, brought her claim as wife and sole dependent of the deceased, John Quasny (Quasny), an employee of Commercial Transfer Company, alleging that her husbands death, which occurred as a result of a heart attack on January 9, 1963, was caused by an accidental injury compensable under the provisions of the Workmens Compensation Act, Code (1957), Article 101. Her claim was allowed by the Workmens Compensation Commission and, on the appeal to the Baltimore City Court, heard by a jury with Judge Grady presiding, at which most of the testimony was given de novo, the Commissions order was affirmed. The appellants, the employer and its insurer, contend not only that the wifes statement was improperly admitted, but also that their objection to certain medical testimony was improperly overruled, and that the testimony, even with the disputed statements admitted, was insufficient to establish an accidental injury, or that the injury was the cause of Quasnys heart attack, and therefore that their motion for a directed verdict should have been granted.
