JUDGMENT FOR MR8. JENNINGS.
End of a-Proionged and Bitter Court
Litigation—Rani Arcanum Would
Not Pay Insurance.
Mary \Vclls Jennings. formerly of
Southport. has won her action against
the Royal Areannm. Mrs. Jennings ls
thc widow of t‘hurles Jennings. who
prior to his death about five years alto
was station agent at Southport. Mr.
Jennings was insured in tho “Loyal
Additional." an auxiliary of the order.
IOI‘ 32 000. He joined this society In
Danbury after passing a satisfactory
medical examination by the examiner
for lheVsociety.
After his marriage Mr. Jennings re-
sided for a while in Pennsylvania.
When he came hast he spoke to some
friends here about organizing u‘ Loyal
Additional " and offered to do all he
could to make it a suctess. >l‘here was
some activity taken in the proposed
movement. but as it did not progress
as rapidly as ilir. Jennings desired. he
joined the branch in Danbury.
When he died his widow was entitled
to $2.000'inauranee. but omcers of the
order claimed he had secured admls'
slon to the llanbury branch in an ir-
regular manner and the payment of
the insurance was stopped. Mrs, .lcn-
niugs proved herself a woman of ac-
tion. She announced that she would
see the case through to the end and
engaged exceptionally able legal tal-
out to look after her interests... As
she was a taxpayer In New York she
had the casc tried out in that juris-
diction.
Dr. C. L. flanks. of Bridgeport. was
one of the chief witnesses for the ord-
er. Mrs. Jennings secured a judg-
ment for the full amount of her claim
and costs before the Supreme Court
of New York one year ago last .Iune.
The order appealed, and last week the
tiourt m Appeals reaffirmed the decis-
ion of the lower court. and Mrs. .lcn-
nines will now receive the money after
a wait of five years. during which time
she fought the ease step by step.
Speaking of thc judvment yestcr
day Mrs. Jennings said: "it has
been a prolonged and bitter struggle.
but i have the satisfaction of know-
ing that justice has prevailed. it was
cruel after his death to accuse my hus-
band of doing anything improper. Why
did not those who were active against
him come forward while he lived?
They waited until death claimed him
and then tried to prevent. me from rc-
ceivlng what was due me. i am not
saying one word against the order. for
it is a splendid society. but i am oppos-
ed to the way its agents attempted to
keep me from what belonged to me.
and at the same time smlrch the char-
acter of a man after his death. i am
very happy over the outcome. although
it has been a tedious contest."
