Joseph Stats has sued the Wood
County Farmers Mutual Fire 1nsur-
ance Association for two hundred and
fifty dollars. Stats says that about
year ago he took out a policy on
his live stock insuring himself
against losing them by lightning or
similar trouble and that he paid the
premium for the policy which was
accepted by the company. Then on
the 14th of last February he says
that lightning struck bunch of cat
tie and hogs which he owned, killing
one steer and several hogs and injur-
ing the remainder.
Stats says further that the Asso-
citation appraised his loss but at too
low a figure and says that the amount
which he asks is a fair compensation
for the loss he sustained and which
the company is bound to reimburse
him under their policy.
