TUESDAY, DECEMBER 15. 1891. ENTERED AT THE POST OFFICE, IN NORWALK As A NEWSPAPER. SOME UNPREJUDICED. Evidence Concerning the Treat: ment of Policy Holders of the Connecticut indemnity Association. NORWALK, CONN.. Nov. 17th, 1891. The Connecticut Indemnity Ascocia- tion, Waterbury, Conn. GENTLEMEN:——Your agent, G. A. Franke, having just handed me a New York draft for $368. 57, I wish to publicly thank you for your promptness and square dealing. I am satisfied from my experience with you that since I was insured for-five thousand dollars, With weekly accident benefits of twent dollars in 1889, that your company a - 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) No. W. BANKS. NEW HAVEN, CONN., Dec. 6th, 1890. _ GENTLEMEN :-——L etme 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 Watts. I shall al'wa _ s bless the day that he in- sured his li e 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. WATTS. PROVIDENCE, R. 1., Jan. 24, 1891. The Connecticut Indemnity Association: Let me thank you for your prompt and courteous treatment. Mr. W. A. . Armstrong, formerly of Norwich ,Conn., was insured in your company more than six years ago, and the entire cost to him, at the age of 58, to carry $1,000 insurance, providing $5 per week in case of disability, was only $101.75, or $16.40 per year. Deducting the bones fits paid him during his life, the net cost of his $1,000 insurance was -only $11.75. This money will prove a great help to _me. Hadhe invested the same money 111. the sayings 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. line companies would have paid 1" _« but $303 insurance for the money paid ' money . insured in to your company by my husband. ( Signed) ELIZABETH ARMsTRONG. DANBUBY,CONN., June 16, 1891. I thank you most sincerely for your very prompt payment of the insurance due under policy 921,0n mylate husband, J. Beardsley. He had been lyour company since 1884, and had a ways found _you generous and reliable in ourdeahngs with him as a policy-hol er. My thanks are es- pecially due our company because, i I I I, ' 11 MI: eardsle ‘ Wh 6 tempo- policy till August 27th. You have paid me seventy days in advance. g, MRS EMILY BEARDSLEY. WATERBURY, CONN., July 22, 1891. Edward A. lVright, Secretary of the (Ionnecticut Indemnity Association, Waterbury, Conn. DEAR SIR : I hardly know how to ex- press my thanks to your company for the great kindness shown me. My hus- ban , Eddie McGuo, insured in your company, April 24, 1891, for $1,000, paying $13. 33. He died of typhoid- pneumonia, July 19, and to-day, July 22; your general agent, Mr. Hastings handed me your. check for the full amount of my claim. He made out all papers for me, and kindly brought me your check, thereby savino me much trouble and annoyance. I feel that this promptness and attention on your part should not be overlooked by me ; therefore I shall be glad to do any- thing in my power to let my friends and others know how you do business. I think the benefit of your insurance, as shown in my case should lead many others to insure with you. Yours was the only company in which my husband was insured. Thanking you with all my heart for what you have done for me, I remain Yours very respectfull , BRIDGET LNCGUO. LONG ISLAND CITY, N. Y., July 28, ’91. E. A. WRIGHT, SECRETARY: Allow us to express our satisfaction with th- methods of your company in paying death claims. We were appointed ex- ecutors of the estate of the late Samuel M. Arlington, of this city, formerly Norwalk, who had been insured with you more than five years, having a pol- icy for $1,000, and we wish to thank on for your prompt payment in full. e acknowledge receipt of your check two months before the claim was actu- ally due. Yours very truly, ALBERT D. COLEMAN,1 E t SAMUEL GURNER. 5 Keep ors. Hat Factory Burned. Taylor Brothers’ hat factory in Beaver Brook district, Danbury, was burned Sunday night by an incendiary. The loss .18 $7,000; insurance $3,000. The building was fifty years old. BRIEF MENTION. Henry Bell, of Homer, Ga, near Atlanta, while drunk and in a. fit of jealousy, beat his young wife to death. The Chilian affair does not appear to be any nearer a settlement than it was two months ago. President Harrison in his mes- sage plainly defined the issue, and the effect of his statement .is eagerly watched for. There is no doubt that a naval demonstra- tion by American vessels will be made in Chil'ian waters. ' A large fire is raging in the Lehigh moun- tains near Allentown, Pa. A terrible fight took place at Waterford between the McCarthyite and Parnellite factions, in which stones and blackthorns were freely . used. Dtvitt, Dr. and a number of others were injured. Mr. Davitt announced that he would contest the borough in the impending parliamentary election. . James Wright, a noted murderer and out- law, with two other desperate characters, overpowered the jailer at the Sneedville prison, in Hancock county, Tenn, and es- Tanner _ China’s Revolution Ended. CHI FUE, China, Dec. 15.—The revolution is apparently ended or considered to be so by the government. Remarkable evidence of this is found in the fact that the Tau Tie of Chi Fue, in the heart of the disturbed district has just given safe convoy overland to American envoys from this place to Tien- Tein and Peking. Such conveyance overland has never hith- erto been offered to foreigners, and in this instance it is accepted as a special compli~ ment to the American people and an expres- sion of friendliness toward them. It indi- cates that Li Hong Chang, the Viceroy, be- lieves the rebellion to be utterly crushed and the rebels completely overthrown. DIED. a DAVENPORT—In Indianapolis, Ind.. Dec. 13, Sarah E.
