But IL Is contended by the insured
that while the amount of the insur-

not binding on the insurer. In other
words. the maximum amount the in

contract, no matter what may be his

is to be governed by the actual value
OF the property at the time Of the

THE insured receive no more than
the agreed value in any case because
the insurance stated In the policy
never exceeds IT. but the insurer may
disregard such value in case Of par

Of ascertaining a partial loss was
clearly obiter.
"As to the Nebraska, decision. it
Is enough TO say that the statute
upon which II is based differs from
ours in a very important particular.
1t is Identical with the first part Of
our law. but contains on require
ment, so far as we could find, that
an agreed value Of the property shall
be endorsed on the policy. 1t simply
makes the amount Of the insurance
stated in the policy the true value OF
the property insured and the true
amount OF the loss and measure Of
damages in case the property in
sured shall be wholly destroyed. Ger
tainly such valuation would not only
apply to a partial loss, and il our
statute contained nothing more than
this in respect to the value of the
property, there would be no conten-
tion that IL controls in the present
case. The policy would be an open
one with respect to a partial loss.
"In our statute. as in the Nebraska
law, 1t is first stated what shall be
the measure OF damages in case OF
total loss, viz, the amount Of the in
surance written in the policy, and
then follows in the Delaware statute,
but not in the Nebraska law, the
provision that in every policy on real
property there shall be endorsed
across the face of its value of the
property agreed upon by the parties.
II is impossible for the Court TO see
any sound reason for this agreed
valuation, unless II is intended TO
furnish the basis for settlement if
there shall be partial loss.
1.-The statute not only requires that
the value of the property shall be
agreed upon and endorsed upon the
policy, but that such estimate shall
be binding on both parties as to
value. We construe this language to
mean that if any controversy shall
arise between the insurer and in
sured involving the value to be
placed on the property covered 10y
the policy, the agreed value shall
govern in ascertaining the amount
of loss.
Many OF the cases cited at the
argument on both sides were cases
that involved personal property. We

on in the policy. Yet that is the pre-

274) and the insurer who has agreed
to a fixed value of the ship ought
not to be allowed, in case OF loss
within the policy, to reject the val
uation and to reduce the claim upon
him on the mere ground that the
vessel is worth more than the sum
agreed upon, and that the owner
should stand constructive insurer as
to the eXcesss. and bear, with the ac-
tual insurer, a pro rata share of the
loss. Such a rule is unequal and un-
just, since il enforces the valuation
as against the owner, but ignores 1t
as against the insurer
Each Of the rules mentioned in
this opinion has been followed where
the property insured was personal
property and particularly goods and
merchandise, but we do not under
stand there have been two rules
where the property was real prop
erty. In the case just referred to,
the Court held that but one rule was
applicable to a ship, and gave the
reason why a different one might
apply to goods and merchandise.
"In concluding the opinion, the
Court used this language:-
but considering that no great
variation in the policy value from
the true value can ordinary take
place. except with the knowledge and
consent of both parties. each may
be held to abide the result Of his
venture. according to the conven-
tional rule OF adjustment

as most analogous to the one before
the Court are Harris v Eagle Fire
Co. Johns 36S, and Lancashire ms
Co v Bush. 60 Nebraska. 11G
"In the aforementioned case, the
Court held the loss to be like a total
loss. because each article lost was
of equal value with every other ar
ticle constituting the cargo; and tho
loss could. therefore. be ascertained
by computation. Such being the case

we think most OF the citations are
hardly applicable to the question be-
fore the Court
IF it should be thought the con-
struction the Court had placed on
our statute will work a hardship
upon insurers. it may he said that
the insurer need not agree TO a val

Judgment will be entered in each

The Court then made the follow
ing order:

A similar order was made in the
