Dear Mr. Cobb: 1 have long heard the liberality
of the Mutual Benefit praised by the people of this
section, but the truth of itfjese statements was
brought home to me with peculiar emphasis when
you handed me your conlpany’s check in settle
ment of claim of $7,000 under two policies on the
life of Willie 1. Kaylor.
His death occurred October 6th, and a few days
later you had all the papers completed and the
insurance company issued their check on the I 5 th.
The settlement appears to have been completed in
just about the usual time required by the mails.
The check delivered to me includes an extra divi
dend, and although you and your company did
your full part in getting the death papers prorr|>t
|y completed, I find they have also allowed inter
est on the amount of the • laim from the date of
his death to the time of receiving the papers.
1 am very glad that you were able to influence my
son in insuring his life, and I shall always speak a
good word for the Mutual Benefit.
Yours, very truly,
J. 1. KAYLOR.
