iron drawers upon his knees and with
an old, well thumbed Bible on the
bench at his side, sat Henry Breed.
In his hands was a package of the pa

filed, and he was gazing, rapt, at the
opposite side of the vault. He turned
without surprise toward the familiar
figure Of Dr. Zelphan and chuckled as
he patted the drawer.

F|ANCEE SUES FOR
INSURANCE POLICY
Bases Contention Against
Casualty Company on Ver-
dict of Coroner's Jury.

An echo Of the death of Charles T.
Browning last September by gas inha-
lation was heard in the District Su-
preme Court today when his fiancee,
Mrs. Edith Richardson, of Salt Lake
City, Utah, filed an action OF discovery
in connection with an accident policy
that. clearly sets forth her intention to
establish her status as beneficiary under
its provisions.
The proceedings. on behalf of Mrs.
Richardson. are brought against the FL
deity and Casualty Company, of New
York, and the Samuel II. Moore Com
pany, its general agent in Washington.
In seeking to be informed of the terms
and benefits of the policy, the plaintiff
charges the defendants with obtaining
possession of the original contract by
fraudulent methods.
Rumors of Suicide.
Mr.. Browning was a wholesale grocer
and died at the Columbia apartment
house, Fourteenth and Girard, under
that led to suicide ru-
mors, hut the coroner's jury returned
a verdict OF accidental death as a result
Ol Sdo' III Dc
bases her action against the
casualty company on that verdict.
II is alleged, in the bill, that an agent
of the Samuel II. Moore Company went
to the apartment, before the will had
been filed or the executors had quail
fed, and unlawfully represented the
policy as void and worthless to Miss
Caddie Browning, a sister of deceased,
who inadvertently surrendered 1t on
demand. The company wrote to Miss
Browning. II is further charged. stating
that the policy had been cancelled, and
ircfosed a check for the unearned pre-
mium on the policy. This she returned.
Has Tried to Get the Policy.
The plaintiff alleges that she has re-
peatedly tried to get possession of the
original policy or a copy and to enjoy
her rights as beneficiary, but that the
company would not give her any salts
faction.
In the suit the plaintiff asks for pro-
cesses of subpoena, for a writ OF dis
covery giving her the terms of the
policy, for an order OF restraint against
the company preventing it from cancel
ing the policy and for the necessary re-
lief that she should have.
