Match 1t: Who Can?

The late Samuel Colt, we'll
known here. was one of the Or; gina
organizers of the MUTUAL LIFE IN
SURANCE Co., of New York. At the
time of his death he held policy No.
155, which was originally written for
only $1,000. There were $500 09 divi-
dends added to this policy during his
life time, of which he drew and used
during his life S2390 90, leaving oal-
ance of S3301 in divide nds which were
added to the po icy ard paid at his
death, his hers thus receiving in cash
S63O1, or more than double the amount
of the original policy If Mr.. Colt had
used no dividends during bis life his
estate would have receive S8700.09, or
nearly three times the amount of the
original insurance. What other COM
psuy can show such a record? Mr.. Colt
drew out and spent in his life time divi-
deuds amounting to four ffths of the
face of his policy, and his heirs at his
death received in cash more than
double the. amount of the face of his
policy.
