INSURANCE CASE
JUDGE COOKE HOLDS ALI
THREE COMPANIES LIABLE.

Raleigh. Nov. 2S.--An insurance
case involving extraordinary legal
complications has just been disposed
Of in the Harnett county, superior
court by Judge G. M. Cooke. At Lii
ington the Hotel Divine was owned
by Mr.. Lee, who procured $4,000
OF insurance through Local Agent
Best. 1t was placed $1,000 each in
the Shawnee, the Royal and Man
chester companies and the policies
were turned over to Trustee Goodwin
who held "a mortgage against the
property. A little while after this
there came to Ellington a special
agent of the Shawnee company, who
induced Agent Best to change this
insurance and put all Of 1t in the
Shawnee company. To this end the
records Of the policies to the Man
chester and the Royal were endorsed
as cancelled and surrendered, and
the special agent OF the Shawnee die
tated letters to the Royal and Man
chester companies to the effect that
their policies were Cancelled and the
three original policies superseded by
a $4,000 policy in the Shawnee. To
Proprietor Lee Of the hotel who lives
in Georgia, he. wrote that the change
was being amde and that the chan ye
afforded him an additional months
insurance. The consolidated policy
was also sent to Lee, there being no
with Trustee Goodwin
who held the original policies.
II was six weeks after this trans
action that the hotel was burned
down. Then there was demand by
Mr.. Lee for $4,000 INSURANCE. How
ever, he abandoned this demand be-
fore the case went to court agreeing
that he was only entitled to the
$4,000. The Shawnee company one
month after the fire made demand
on Agent Best for the premium for
the $4,000 consolidated policy. In
court later the Shawnee set up the
claim that there was no valid concel-
lation Of the three original policies
and that the Royal and the Manches-
ter were equally liable with the
Shawnee for the fire loss. Then the
Royal and the Manchester answered
that IL Proprietor Lee was entitled
to recover from them then they were
entitled toDrecover their $1,000 each
from the Shawnee. This was the view
that Judge Cookie took OF the case
after hearing that continued
through three days With Tiuett and

Upon the close of the reading OF

gate read an expression regarding the
passionate OF Rev. G. T. Adams on the
completion OF his four years term,
adopted by the board of stewards OF
Trinity church Friday evening. In
conclusion Mr.. Southgate paid low
ing tribute TO Reverend Adams and
the work he has accomplished in Dur

able minister has gone among the

Trinity Church for period of four
years, now retires through the opera
ton of the law Of the church fixing
the time limit, the Board of Stewards
takes this occasion to express to him
the confidence and esteem in which
he is held by the members.
in addition to our appreciation Of
his general excellence, in preaching
and in pastoral work, we desire to
emphasize his friendliness to all the
people. the prominence he gives to
the work of saving souls, his personal
work with the unconverted, by which
he has ben instrumental in leading
many souls TO Christ, and TO member
ship into his church, his cheerful and
hopeful spirit under all conditions,
whether affecting himself or his fell
low men.
His pastorate has been character
lied by harmony in the church, by
financial ease, by the addition OF four
hundred and sixteen members by let
ter and profession. and by a whole
some and efficient Identification OF
Trinity with all the religious, educa-
tional and humanitarian interests OF
the town. To whatever field OF labor
he may go we shall ever be mindful
of his jealous activities and efficient
services in our midst. and assure him
that he leaves in Trinity Church. and
