Of tie South Eastern Div,sion Of the South

Iork and Chicago Lloyds.
We have been required by the Compt.
Grn'l., 10 deposit a formal agreement, in
writing, by these underwriters, obligating
themselves to the effect, that if any suit
should lie necessary against them, the service
of summons upon me, for them, or upon any
of my agents in any part Of the State, would
he valid and binding, and would have the
game effect, in any court, MS II served upon
them personally. Every insurance company
has TO DO this, and such service, upon their
agents, binds the company and we AS
separate underwriters nave been required to
do the same thing.
Ifyou had 4 claim against an insurance
COMPANY, and had TO sue, YOU wenld have 10
adopt that process and serve the agent for
! that companv over there, and when you got
| a Judgment against his company. then you
would have 20 get q transcript Of the judg-
ment SEP, in to New York, or wherever the
! company had its headquarters and bring suit
against the company on the judgment, and
tefore yon got the judgment, you would
probably Sud that the company bad gone
into the hands Of a receiver, and the chances
axe that you would never get anything AT
all; but, if You brought suit against these
underwriters and obtained a Judgment here,
which would be a separate Judgment against
each OF these rnen and n joint Judgment
against them collectively, you would take
The transcript of that judgment and send 1t
wherever they were, and bv a similar action
you would find that YOU had a man at The
! other end, who WIS ready and able TO pay the
little amount aud could not stand Il suit
about it.
This is the only difference between the
Lloyd and old line companies, as far as sue
ing is concerned, but you would never have
any trouhle with these Lloyds about suits.
