SWIPE v. 1141CIINIX !ISt INSpItANCIS Cotsll'ASlre
This was an action brought by.the, pleintiff, Ana
polka of insurance; to recover re3tatel, the ve4tre af, a
certain buildiag and merchandise therein, situated in
the Lower Town, in the island of Heligoland, insured
by the defendants, an I which were consumed by fire,
in July last. It app arrd in evidence, that about
eight o'clock in the evening of the 11th of July last,
a fire was discovered in a wooden building, near tonne
of the same construction, belonging to the plaintiff ;
that by great exertions the fire was, to all ap-
pearance, soon extinguished; that the plaintiff, how,
'ever, apprehensive of danger to his own premises,
tram their contiguity to the place of accident, thought
it poi:lent to station four watchmen thert for the
night ; and having done•so, immediately went home
and wr•te 0) his correspondent in London, to effeA
insurance on his said property, taking no notice in the
letter of any of the above circumstances ; that the
mail bag for England had been already closed that
evening, but that the plaintiff, by extraordinary
genre, was able to dispatch his leiter by the same
heat which conveyed the mail, manifesting Much
anxiety to have insurance immediately effected on the
property in question ; that he was the proprietor of
several other buildings, ..in other 'parts of the town,
bet had never before insured any of his property, and
that he now insured only that part of it which was in
the immediate vicinity of the accident. On the fol-
lowing nigh:, fire was again discovered in die Sartre
building where it had broken out the 11th, and
with it was consumed the above mentioned building
and merchandise of Mr. Bole. In tl.e mean time,
the defendants, ignorant of all these circumstances,
had granted insurance en the property. There was ,
not the slightest imputation upon, the conduct of the
plaintiff in respect to the fire, but the defendants re-
sisted the claim on the ground that an ingenuous and
full disclosure should have been made of the parti-
cular circumstances of the case, and oldie situational
the property at the time of ordering the insurance.
The Chief Justice (Grans), in summing up the
evidence, commented on the importance of the cir-
cumstances not
.communicatedin the plaintiff's letter;
and' told the Jury that in all contracts of insurance,
it was necessary that the insured should frankly and
unreservedly communicate every fact within his own
knowledge, which was essential to influence and
guide the judgment of she underwriter ; and that
the concealment of any material circumstance neces-
sarily vaiated policies of insuraace.—Verdict far the
defendants.

posed to allow them 441.50 per annum,. the two first
half years' pay ments (est *hitt, due prior to his death,
he duly made by drafts on his:banking.!.ouse. Mrs.
Down subsequently represented to her husband the
propriety, as he had become reconciled to his dau4l)
ter, of mooring her to her former interest itehispro-
petty with his other children, to which he assented,
and she having, by his directions, prepared the•codi-.
eil in question, the deceased regularly signed it, Ste.
and several times afterwards expressed his satisfactios
at having so done.
•Sic Joao Niettoat, after heating Counsel on both
sides, observed. that the evideace was such as to
leave not the slightest doubt on the -mind of the
Court as to the mode of disposing of the question
before it, the four witnesses exatnined in support of
the codicil having fully proved the ease set up
Though the deceased had been afflicted with paralytic
affections, and his memory wat at times imperfect..
yet there was nothing to chew that his legal capacity
was at all impaired. He did eget y thing to prevent
the early marriage of his daughter; but after it had
taken place, he was disposed to make the best of it.l
Mrs. Down, however, as a prudent and judicious
parent, dezmed it right to postptine the reconciliation
for a time, as an example to deter the other unmar-
ried branches of the family from a similar impru-
dence; but when the state of the deceased's health,
and his anxiety on the subject, rendered it advisable
no longer to defer the reconciliation, she readily
brought it about. The natural consequence of this
was the making of the codicil in question, the former
ground of exclusion being, removed. It was not ab-
solutely necessary.that this act should originate with
the deceased, for when proposed he adopted and exe-
cuted it with great alacrity, manifesting nut the least
reluctance or want of free agency ; and it was after-
wards fully recognised by him and in the family. As
the adverse Counsel had found. there was so little
ground for argument against the codicil, the Court
would out touch upon the nature of die interrogato-
ries administered to a mother and sister as titeSe had
been. They indicated, howevet, the way its whicl,
the suit had been conducted., and that a degree of re:
sentment still prevailed in this family, from which it
was to be feared that the harmony it was so desirable
to preserve amongst them was not likely to be as yet
restored; and agreeably to the 'rule of 'practice, by
which a legatee who propounds and establishes a tes-
tamentary paper is cutitled to cons out of d* estate
as of course, chsts were given iq this case.

Mr. PIUNrE SAIIVA and Mr. DakLANTIL7II6 far tile'
