SEBRING, Justice. Charles William Hecht suffered an injury by accident arising out of and in the course of his employment. Within one year
after the occurrence of the accident he died as the result of the injury. Subsequent to the date of the accident, but prior
to his death, section 440.16, Florida Statutes 1951, was amended so as to enlarge the benefits accruing to the widow in case
of the death of an injured claimant, F.S.A. § 440.16.
