land recently refused to pay a policy
on the life of a Mr.. JEFFcoCK, be-
cause he descended into a colliery
and succeeded in 'rescuing several
persons at the sacrifice of himself.
The. London Company refused to pay
on the ground that he bad no right to
incur an extraordinary and ~unnecessa-

pany has issued q statement to the eff
feet that extra Icouragein-the assured
cannot be permitted without an extra

thinks if extra courage must pay an

to have an extra deduction. If a.
man must pay an extra premium, fors

intoAthe water after his wife or his

also to have a corresponding discount
