        "text": "Grifein Smith, Chief Justice.\nCircuit Court affirmed Workmen\u2019s Compensation Commission in awarding $7.55 per week during dependency (and certain incidental sums). The appeal questions Gracy Nelson\u2019s right to collect any sum, contention being that she was supported by her husband. Will, seventeen years of age, was burned to death in December, 1943, while engaged in the Company\u2019s service, etc.\nThere was testimony that McKinley Nelson, the decedent\u2019s step-father, supported his wife, and efforts were made to show that any money given Gracy by her son was a gratuity. On the other hand, there was evidence that Will had for some time made material contributions to his mother and that to a certain extent she relied upon his efforts. The Commission found that necessary elements of support existed. We are not able to say there was no substantial testimony to support this factual finding.\nIn its conclusions of law the Commission employed these expressions: \u201cAt the time of [Will Curley\u2019s] accidental death his mother was dependent upon him within the meaning of the Workmen\u2019s Compensation Act, as no distinction is made as to total or partial dependency. \u201d\nIn Arthur Murray Company, Inc., v. Cole, ante, p. 61, 189 S. W. 2d 614, we said:\n\u201cThe appeal is controlled by Crossett Lumber Company v. Johnson, 208 Ark. 572, 187 S. W. 2d 161. It was there held that \u2018dependent,\u2019 within the meaning of Act 319, is to be distinguished from \u2018wholly dependent.\u2019 One is dependent if he or she relies partially upon contributions of a person whose aid contributes a material element in the claimant\u2019s support.\u201d\nAffirmed.",
