President Peabody OF the Mutual Life ii was

date polled. and assures the administration d.
rectors OF the policyholders' approval of Mr.
Peabody's administration. The inspectors lad
ministration ticket figures were 1912, the ad-
ditional votes polled being due principally to
the fact that Mr.. Peabody, as well twelve
other administration nominees. were named also
on the selected fusion ticket which polled
S,447 votes.

ticket was George T. Dexter, the companys
second vice-president. Because. however. Mr..
