issued to DR.. Bolden on october 2S,
1916, and delivered to him early in
November, on which he paid one quar-
terly premium of $17.7O, which placed
the insurance in full force. 1t required
two months of persistent ~canvassing
by local agents to persuade DIR. Bolden
to take this policy.
But for this p~ersistency The Stand
ard Life Insurance Company would not
have been able to pay to Mrs. Bolden,
the widow, a check for $1,000, as a
protection and to take the place, in
part, of the support which DR.. Bolden
gave her during his lifetime.
Check in full settlement of the death
claim of DR.. Bolden was forwarded
from Atlanta to the st. Louis office,

the agency director, Chrales H. Fear
