Gilbert Block Insurance Adjustments

Adjustment has not been agreed upon yet for the insurance on the Gilbert black at Mystic, the adjusters having offered Pendleton Brothers but $17, 1000, giving as a reason that the block was not insured for so per cent. of it's value. It Is hoped. however, that e settlement will be agreed upon within a few days and efforts to that end are being made. A term of 50 days is given in which insurance may be ad4 justed, but it is probable that this will be settled before that time.
 T. E. Packer & company has already paid some of its policyholders. having had $17,000 on the contents of the Gilbert block, all losses being adjusted satisfactorily. Drafts for the rest of the losses will be received in few days. A number of Mystic people know more about insurance now than they did before the Gilbert block fire, and the advisability of insurinE with only the stronger companies and of carrying 80 per cent. protection is be- ing realized
