iWr.
To the Policy Holders of the Metropolitan Life Insurance
Company and the General Public:
The financial situation is such, I feel it my duty to announce that we
will pay all claims at our office, 921 Prudential Building, without waiting on
remittances from New York.
On all Policies of $500 and upward, on which there has been
. three or more annual premiums paid, we will make liberal cash loans at
' 5% per annum. '
Any child that can read can tell what our policies are worth, as they
contain no estimates. Every word and figure, a guarantee.
