ed great and unusual losses. which
include four of the largest i'm the
South, besides numerous others of
smaller note The losses ON this
character of risk are not stated
but probably amount to us much or
more than that of the Oh mills.
Another class Of risks ON which the
premiums are almost prohibitive
is that of ginning establishments,
