August 21, 1981.

Mark E. Gormley, Versailles, Sam McNamara, Frankfort, for appellees.

Vincent Logan, pro se.

Before HOGGE, HOWARD and McDONALD, JJ.

HOWARD, Judge.

This appeal presents only one question that we must consider: was appellee, Walter Perkins, an independent contractor or an employee of appellee, Vincent Logan, when he was injured while rebuilding a tobacco barn on the farm of appellee, Mary Crutcher? If Perkins is found to be an independent contractor, he is not entitled to Workmen's Compensation benefits. We find that Perkins is an independent contractor and reverse the circuit court.
