Albanv City Insurance Company vs. Bal- lentine. Error to the Circuit Court for Michigan.— Tnis was an action on a policy of insurance. Sub- sequently to the delivery of the policy it was re- turned to the agent, who, at the request of the insured, endorsed on the margin, ‘$10,000 fire in- surance permitted,” and signed his name. On the trial it was insisted by the company that the agent ad no authority to make such a contract, and at his action did not bind the principal. ‘The Court ruled that if Lindsay, the agent, knew of the intended $10,000 fire insurance when he received the application and delivered the pol- icy, it must be presumed that the Prananyeon was had With reference to that fact, and that the limita- tion of valuation in the policy must have been in addition to the $10,000. It is here urged that this was erroneous, and that to so hold is for the Court to make a new con- tract for the parties. The Court will not presume that the company consented to insurances to so reat an amount on property worth much less. It f also said that the Court erred in refusing to sub- mit the question to the jury. A. J. Parker tor plain- tiffs in error; H. B, Brown tor deiendant. THE WEEHAWKEN WIFE MURDER.
