umpires  grounds of appeal  not a trial de novo 

Summary:

The Crown Attorney wanted to have witnesses heard to comfirm the credibility of the insured. This is not a de novo trial. The absurd or arbitrary conclusion must be drawn from the documents in the file. The judge does not have to substitute his opinion to that of the Board in matters of credibility.
