having value OF $4,000. Thoy wero ineurod
in the Homo Of Now York for S0,7Oo, and waro
totally destroyed by fire in 1871. Tho Company
neglocting or refusing to pay, Roberts brought
snit; the Company then offered to pay him ono
third tho amount Of. the policy. At this juno
ture Mr. Luce, upon being informed OF tho
state Of the case, declared 1t an outrage, aud
agreed to pay Roberts the amount offered by tho
Company, aud al in excess that he might COL
1eot. Roberts theroupon assigned tho policy to
Luce, who brought suit as aHsignoe. The Com
pany employed aa thoir attorneys to defend the
suit the Same firm which Roborts had Gu gagged
to prosecute 1t. A largo number Of witnesses
wore brought from all parts Of tho country to
testify as experts, several going from Chicago.
Tho trial lasted nearly weck, and resulted in q
verdict for tho plaintiff for tho whole amount Of
the policy. The defendants, 1t sooma, oftorol q:
largo amount OF ovidonco to show that the pic
tl1res were of little value as works OF art but
the plaintiff claimed that Independent of any
value thoy might have had as works Of art, tloy
had commercial value Us pictures, aud that
yaluo they claimed, and to tho oxtont Of tho pol
Icy thcy got o verdict.
