General Agent
South Atlantic Life Insurance Co.
Dillon, S. c.
Dear Sir beg to acknowledge
receipt of yours of the 18th inst.
containing check for 81 900 to cover
the policy held by my late hus-
band, Mr.. S. L, Page, in the South
Atlantic Life Insurance Company.
In this connection l wish to ex-
press my appreciation of the
promptness with which the claim
was settled. The proofs of death
were completed and forwarded to
the home office on the 18th inst.
and the check was received on the
18th. | consider this a remark
ably quick settlement, inasmuch
as there is always more or less red
tape and unnecessary delay in the
settlement of death claims by in
Surancc companies.
Respectfully,
(Copy) MRS. S. L. PAGE.
