An Ipkurance Question.

BIG ISLAND.
To ne Eiitor OF ne Dispatch
A husband had bis life insured for the
benefit of his wife, but the wife died be-
fore the husband, leaving no children or
will. The husband died shortly after
wards leaving a will, but making no men,
ton therein of the insurance money. Now
the question is whether this money is the
property Of the wife's relatives. accord
ing to law OF descent (she leaving brothers
and sisters. or is ii subject TO the bus
bands debts. Again. had the husband the
legal right to dispose of that money by
will after the wife's ~death-the policy re-
naming unchanged and the wife being
the beneficiary :? n. A. j.
II would be impossible TO answer this
question in%telligently without seeing the
terms Of the policy Of insurance. Such
policies usually are clear enough to meet
the contingencies mentioned. Usually the
policy provides if the wife dies in the
husbands lifetime how the money Is to so
on the husbands death.
