Castile, C. H.

“It is further ordered that within 30 days from this date, the respondents herein file with this Commission proper receipt or other report evidencing compliance with the terms of this order.

“Upon the adoption of the foregoing order the roll was called and. the following answered aye: Chairman Doyle — Commissioners Fannin and McElroy.”

Petitioner, Aetna Life Insurance Company, commenced this original proceeding in. this court within the statutory period, alleging in its petition seven specifications of error. Petitioner states that its contention in this appeal is fully set out in the sixth specification, which is as follows:

“There is an entire absence of competent evidence that the respondent, Fred C. Mc-Martin, was in the employment of the Pollyanna Oil Company at the time of the happening of the accident upon which this award is based, and for that reason the purported finding of fact contained in said award and numbered one is not reasonably supported by any .competent evidence.”

We observe that petitioner (Aetna Life Insurance Company) admits that it is the insurance carrier for the Pollyanna Oil Company, a corporation, and by reason of its contract with the Pollyanna Oil Company had a legal obligation to indemnify or compensate those persons injured who were employees of the said company, but contends that the relationship of master and servant did not exist between the Pollyanna Oil Company and the claimant, Fred C. McMartin, at the time of the injury.

The record discloses the following pertinent facts: The Pollyanna Oil Company was a foreign corporation. Mr. C. H. Dexter, its superintendent, resident officer and agent in Oklahoma, had offices in Tulsa, Okla. Through Mr. Dexter, the Pollyanna Oil Company leased or rented on conditional sale certain oil well casing to L. H. Cravens, worth approximately $4,100. The Pollyanna Oil Company received $500 cash and an undivided 1/32 interest in an oil and gas lease, a well to be drilled on said lease at Mounds, Okla., said acquired interest of the Pollyanna Oil Company to. become effective if the well was a producer, otherwise the oil well casing, or its equivalent in money (cash value of $3,61(5.35) would be. a balance, owing said oil' company .for said casing. The Pollyanna Oil Company did sue for the balance due on said casing after the injury sustained by this claimant, Fred C. McMartin. The Pollyanna Oil Company assigned their undivided 1/32 interest to Mr. Dexter on January 3, 1925, the day said injury occurred, but the same was not recorded until two days,thereafter.

The record further shows that at the time of the injury O. H. Dexter was a salaried employee of the Pollyanna Oil Company and never personally had any interest in the well. His acts were those of an agent of the Pollyanna Oil Company. As such agent he hired C. E. Lieb and instructed Lieb to get some men and go to work in an effort to get back the casing for the Pollyanna Oil Company, or its equivalent of about $3,600 in cash, by making said oil well a producer under the terms of the lease or conditional sale.

C. E. Lieb hired this claimant in pursuance to his instructions from C. H. Dexter, agent of the Pollyanna Oil Company, and this claimant sustained injuries while so employed.

Mr. Dexter paid this claimant compensation, for which he was reimbursed by the Pollyanna Oil Company.

In our opinion this evidence is sufficient to establish the relation of employer and employee between the Pollyanna Oil Company and Fred O. McMartin. At the time of the injury, the Pollyanna Oil Company, whose Oklahoma superintendent (agent) had employed this claimant, not only owned an interest in the oil well in the way of cásing, but by virtue of the failure of its agent, O. H. Dexter, to record the assignment of its'undivided 1/32 interest to him until after the injury, the Pollyanna Oil Company had not divested itself of said interest as against this claimant.

It is further observed that- the Pollyanna Oil Company ratified the act of its agent, Dexter, in paying, claimant compensation by reimbursing him. Having made proof of this ratification before the Commission, the claimant has made proof of agency and authority, for the one includes the other. Beard v. Herndon, 84 Okla. 142, 203 P. 226.

The Commission having found that the claimant, Fred C. McMartin, was an employee of the Pollyanna Oil Company, and *110 there being competent evidence reasonably tending to support said finding, the same, being a finding of fact, will not be disturbed by this court on review. Tom Cook Independent Casing Crew v. Meadows, 148 Okla. 69, 297 P. 270.

The award of the Industrial Commission is affirmed.
