Mrs. Williams died last November.
 The plaintiff represents that the con- pany through its agents held that the pay ment of the full amount could not be made owing to certain paragraphs in the policy, in which the company specified that it would not pay claims when death was due to certain causes named in the policy, and stating that the csuse of the death of her sister absolved the company from making payment. In this way. the plaintiff rep rssents, she was induced to accept $4D0, instead of q, 900, which she no6 claims she ought to have recsived. Acting under instructions from Attorney Goodhart, Dep- uty Sheriff Crockett yesterday served pa psrs on tho company in 8 suit for $500, the balance due Miss Mesham.
