A CARD TO THE PUBLIC.

RICHMOND, Va, Sept l, 1869.
1t affords us pleasure to announce the promptness
which was shown by Mr.. David 2. Clark, President
of the Equality Life Insurance Company, in settling
the loss of two thousand dollars caused by the death
of our mother, Mrs. Mary G. Hendrick, we being
the beneGciares by the Policy on her life. So soon
as he learned of her death, he notified of his will
nguess to pay the loss at once, and he has settled
it without claiming the ninety days grace allowed
by the Policy.
We regard Life Insurance, as the friend of the
orphan, the widow, the needy and the helpless, and
would especially recommend this Southern and ibe
raj company not only to our friends but the public
generally. Very Respectfully,
MARTHA l.. HOWARD,
seS-4t BARBARA II. SNEAD.
