An InnArallelnd Record

At no time in the history of family
is ready cesh so appreciated as when
the head of the family dies and the sur
vivOrs have to accustom themselves TO
the new condition of thugs, and look
elsewhere than TO their loved protector
for support and maintenance. In this
time of trouble, while nothing can replace
the love and affection of the departed
one, a policy of lie insurance IN a strong
and reliable company is source of great
comfort, for even if it is not large
enough to provide the future support of
the family, it enables them TO live until
they can do something for themselves.
Promptness at such a time is great es-
sential on the part of a Life Insurance
Company. and the company which meets
its obligations with greatest promptness
has the best claim to the confidence of the
public. In this particular, no company
can equal the record of the Equitable
Life Assurance Society, and If it had no
other claim 10 public confidence, this
would go far TO explain the fact OF its
leading every company in the world IN all
that makes an insurance company great.
Three recent claims paid in Virginia
illustrate this point. Policy No. 591, 50S
for $1,000. J. ]. ID. had been carried only
six months. The assured died and in
sending in the proofs, the agent wrote
The wife has not dollar in the house"
The proofs left Richmond on the 18th Of
September and on September 2lst a
check for 81 ZOO was sent 10 this bereav-
ed and destitute family.
Policy No. 4S6.3i2 on A. j. c. for
5000 had been in force but two years,
when the head of the family. young
business nan, was accidentally drowned
The proofs in this case We're sent on
September 81. and on September oath
check for 5000 arrived in Richmond.
Policy No. 66,il4 for $4,000 on j.
r. A.. was one of long standing on the
life of one of Richmond's best citizens.
In this case the proofs were sent on Sep
TENDER 10Th and check received Septem-
Der ODD Such instances. of which thou
sands similar could be given, make the
public feel that an Equitable policy is a
sure protection, and that when man
dies his family will get the provision
made for them certainly, and with all
possible dispatch.
