claims $4,000, the amount of the policy for which
her deceased husbands life was insured.
The defendant company refuge to pay, and allege
that the policy obtained by means of false repre-

and Mr. Mlegan, the company's adjuster of losses
The testimony is of alleged admissions made by the
plaintiff to these officers separately. DIR. Lambert is
contradicted on all material points by the plaintiff

took no part in the conversation whatever and Sec
ond that such conversation as the doctor testified
to was made by anybody. Mr.. Milegan is met in

the veracty of the two chief officers of the defendant
company, the verdict of the jury will be of interes
to the public.

In the evening there was a sermon by Rev. A.
G. Herrick, of Freeport. Friday morning there
was large audience at the Baptist church,
where Rev. DR.. Robbins of Colby University,
delivered an eloquent Grafton. His theme was
True Education" At the close the people
adjourned to the academy, where a bountiful
dinner had been set by the generous people of
Hebron. The numbers required the setting of
two tables; and this made it necessary to ad-
Journ to the church for the usual afternoon ex-
ercises Here speeches were made by Percival
Bonney of Portland, student of twenty
years ago; Rev. Sumner Estes, who was stu
dent twenty years ago. He related his strug-
giles in obtaining an education, as an encour-
agement to students present to persevere. Rev.
a. Y. Herrck, student, and also for ten years
principal OF the academy, made a speech,
weaving In many incidents in the history of
the institution, as well as some of the occur.
ences while he was connected with school, In
the evening there was concert and sociable.

1t was an event that the friends of the school
had looked forward to with great pleasure, and
marked the completion of the 10th year since
the academy was opened. After the settle
ment of the town the citizens moved for a
church and an academy at the same time
One building was erected, which partitioned
from floor to roof gave an audience room for
the Baptist society and school room for the
academy: This joint occupation continued for
years, till the church and the school each OBJ
tanned line buildings for separate use. The
school has educated many men who have at
tanned prominence in after life.

over those of the second quarter of the year,
equal to twenty-five per cent.
In order to show at glance the relative fig
ures, we compile from the circular the failures
of each quarter of the year since the beginning
of 1875, at which date these quarterly state
ments were commenced:
