Eldora, Nov. 20.-The district court
at this place was occupied yesterday
trying the case OF Mrs. G.. J. Sargent
vs. the Modern Brotherhood of Amer
lea, being suit wherein Mrs. Sar-
gent seeks to collect an insurance
policy Of $1,000, which was issued
on the life Of her deceased daughter,
Lulu May Sargent.
The M. B. of A. refused payment on
the policy on the grounds that the
insured had misrepresented the condi-
ton of her health at the time OF her
medical examination for the policy.
Defendant based it's refusal to pay,
on the contention that the answers
to questions were false, and known
to applicant to be false at the time
same were made. It sought to show
that the insured had been bothered
with headache for years, and had in
fact had at least one severe sick-
ness and had employed more than one
AS matter Of fact, the defense was
only able to show one slight attack Of
gastritis, and two attacks Of headache
during the entire lifetime OF the In
sured. and 1t was shown by the evil
dence OF DR.. Gethman, the local ex-
aminer for the company, that 1t was
customary to pass over without COM
ment, such things as would in fact be
no permanent injury to the health OF
the applicant.
The court Immediately decided the
case in favor of the plaintiff, giving
her judgment against the company
for the full amount Of the policy.
