'GENTLEMEN:—Y0u1‘ agent, G.‘ A. York draft for $368. 57, Iwish to publicly thank you for your promptness and square dealing. I am satisfied from was insured for five thousand dollars, dollars in 1889, that your company al- ways will act for the best'interests of its policy holders. Your ready payment of my claim for eighteen weeks and three’ days con— firms my good opinion of you. Wishing you the success that you so well deserve, I remain Very truly yours, ( Signed) Jim. W. BANKS. NEW HAVEN, CONN., Dec. 6th, 1890. GENTLEMEN z—Letm e thank you most sincerely for your promptness in pay- ing me my claim of $1,000 on the policy issued to my late husband,Isaac W'atts. I shall always bless the day that lie in- sured his life in your company. You have done me a great favor by paying the claim before 'it was due. My hus- band had only paid in $97.76, and I have received such great benefit. Yours very gratefully, (Signed) SARAH A. VVATTS. PROVIDENCE, R. I., Jan. 24, 1891. The Connecticut Indemnity Association: and courteous treatment. Mr. W. A. Armstrong formerly of N orwicli,Conii., than six years ago, and the entire cost to him, at the age of 58, to carry $51,000 insurance, providing $5 per week in case of disability, ‘was only $101.75, or $16.40 per year. Deducting the bene- fits paid him during his life, the net cost of his $151,000 insurance was only $11.75. This money will prove a great help to me. Had he invested the same money in the savings bank, he would have realized nothing during his disa- bility. and would have left me only $113.16, instead of the $1,000 at death. Old line companies would have paid to your company by my husband. _ (f Signed) ELIZABETH ARMSTRONG. DANRURY,CONN., June 16, 1891. I thank you most sincerely for your very prompt payment of the insurance money due under policy 921,0n my late husband, J. Beardsley. He had been insured in your company since 1884, ,and had always found you generous ‘ and reliable in your dealings with him as a policy-holder. My thanks are es- pecially due your company, because, although Mr. Beardsley, while tempo— ; rarily deranged, committed suicide, 5 still you in no‘ respect questioned the fvalidity of my claim. I was not due me by the terms of the policy till August 27th. You have paid me seventy days in advance. MRS EMILY BEARDSLEY.
