The Mutual Fire Insurance Company Of
Cecil County.
ITS ORIGIN AND HISTORY.

This Company WIS organized and COM
menccd business in April, 1Sts.
The necessity for its organization arose
from the passage OF an act by tie General
Assembly Of the State, imposing upon
agents of foreign insurance companies the
obligation 70 take oat licenses, at heavy
charges, and levying p"o rata tax on all
premiums received ly them.
An effort was made at the time to ex-
empt from the operation of the act, mutual
companies whose rates were adjusted to a
scale necessary to cover losses and expenses
only, without any view to profits or divi-
dends to the members or stockholders
But the effort failed, and the law was so
framed as to be of universal application.
The lrge receipts of the joint stock
companies, operating III the city of Balti-
more, and elsewhere in the State, enabled
them to bear this burden; but the low
rates and limited receipts of the two
Mutual Companies at that time operating
to some extent in Cecil county, and known
as he lJDc nun dlltl ne MIL Alcck
Hundred Companies, located the one in
Chester county, Pennsylvania, and the
other in New Castle county, Delaware,
prevented them from complying with the
requirements of that act: SO that while
those of our citizens who were insured il
those companies We're deprived of con.
venient mode of renewing their policies,
others, forming n large majority of the
property holders of the county, who had
no insurance, were deprived OF the op.
portunity of availing themselves of thai
cheap mode of protection against fire,
without Il hazardous violation of law.
Under these circumstances Il number OF
gentlemen assembled i'll Elkton during the
session of the October term of the county
Court, and determined to take steps t.
effect the organization of domestic com
pany, on Tie mutual principles and aftel
corresponding with similar companies, al
act of Incorporation was prepared and sub
mittCd to the next session of the Legisla
! turc, where it was accepted and passed a
December session, 1915, chapter 249.

Before my vision rose a scene sublime
Sweet flowers, green fields, glad hearts

Together kept by loves unsullied ties,
With tiendish heart eXulting, gazed OF

Twas sin, the dreadful agent of despair
Whose scepter vile compelled weak man

The faded flowers hung low in withered

And gloom o'ercast the desolatcd plains,

Inspiring all to flee from endless night;

And watched lir's guiding star with

And soon foul sins dark deeds o'ercast
With radiant light that flashed athwart

Bright blooming flowers adorned the
emerald strand
And happy spirits heaH:ed thro' spark

They watched and prayed, obeying God S

Redeemed, escaped eternal miselies,
My heart reioiced to gaze on love like this
My spirit prayed to mingle with the
throng,
To feel but one fleet hour slich boundless
bliss,
And catch the strains of their celestial
song.
But soon my restless spirit wandered back,
To haunts of sin, where those arh0 sac

Descending ever pierced with poison spears
They idly roamed the barren desert o'er
