A NOVEL AND cURIOUS QUESTION of life in- surance is likely to arise in Delaware. Profs sor West of Dover lad his life insured for & for the benefit of his family.

His apparent object in he murder was that the mutilated body of the negro might be mistaken for his own corpse. and the insurance companies be defrauded out of the £25,(9@. The question arises, if West is hanged for this murder, will the companies bs compelied to pay the amount of the insurance to his family? If be to the interest of the companies to see that the murderer gets off with some lighter penalty, such es imprisonment for life.
