BS-We publish in another column Of to-days
paper card Of the Susquehanna Mutual In
surance Company. An Institution which has
been Incorporated by our Legislature at its
last Session, and gone into operation under
the General Insurance Law of this Common
wealth, passed in 1856
We are glad to see among the officers and
Directors Of the Company some of the most
substantial, efficient and enterprising business
men and farmers in our County. The necessity
of an Institution of this kind located at the
County Seat has been long felt by the citi-
zens of this County. Hitherto a large por-
ton of the Insurance business of this vicinity
has been done by Corp0rators located in 9TH
er parts Of the State, or Companies beyond
GERS and Directors, were in most cases entire
ly unknown to our people, and their place Of
business not within the jurisdiction of the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Such being
the case, many Of our citizens reelected to in
sure their buildings Thus in many instances
causing great individual loss and suffering for
want of proper insurance, in cases of loss by
dres which has so frequently occurred In
the future if our citizens shall neglect to in
sure their residences, &c, the fault will be their
own.
The office Of the Company is kept at No 8,
in that fine Brick Row, which has been built
on the west side of Main street within the
past year, at the centre of business in the
Borough.
