Speedy Fair and Honorable Adjustment Of all Losses
ANlNAllA why you should insure your
fitHNtIMN property with the Abbeville-
Greenwood Mutual Insurance

Greenwood Mutual Insurance
Association.
I. 1t is an Association of the people,
for the people and by the people, and we
have thoroughly demonstrated that mu-
tual insurance is practicable for and by
homefolks.
2. This Association insures against
" fire and lightning, cyclones, tornadoes
and wind storms" while capital compan-
les insure against fire.
3. This Association has half mil
lion dollars of property insured, and
since its organization has paid thirteen
thousand dollars of losses, at an average
annual assessment of one-half of one
per cent, one-ffth of the cost of other
companies, and not in a single instance
has it resorted to the aid of the Courts
to collect an assessment or to adjust
loss.
4. By this plan you pay for the pro-
lection you have enjoyed in the past, and
if there is no loss, there is no expense;
while in other companies you pay in ad-
, vance for protection you expect to get,
though may not get except paid for dear
ly by legal proceedings.
5. This plan is contract between
neighbors; while in other companies
you enter into a contract written by
the company, for the company, and
against you. You can read and un-
derstand the policy of this company.
Few understand an average insurance
policy.
g.. Speedy, fair and honorable adjust
ment Of all losses of property are made
lat assessed valuation when insured, with
no three-fourths clause attached The
man who values your property is your
neighbor, who also adjusts your loss !;
while in other companies, when you sus-
tain loss, stranger comes and looks
into the ashes and says what is to be
paid you.
7. You can with small expense insure
against fire, wind and storm, while fire
policy is about all you can afford in the
old companies. You can enjoy the salts
faction of knowing that if your dwelling
is burned, it is insured in an Association
composed of friends and neighbors, who
will pay every dollar at which it was
valued, and not be subject to thousand
and one restrictions, imposed by other
companies, more for their advantage
than for the protection of the insured.
The money paid out is kept at home,
and every dollar goes to the looser of
property, which means the upbuilding Of
your own county.
8. Don't wait to be burned out and
become burden to your friends by hav-
ing them BEG for you, when absolute pro-
lection is yours by casting in your mite.
Demonstration is fact, and co-opera-
ton is your duty. Therefore, at once in
sure in the Abbeville- Greenwood Mutual
