refused to go back on the precedent that
when a person whose life Is insured is

Of the insured has been established. The
facts OF the suit are summarized by the
journal quoted, as follows:
The innocence of an insured who was
executed after conviction Of a capital
crime does not change the rule that In
surance 'cannst be recovered upon the life
Of a person who was executed for crime
