Rehearing Denied Dec. 30, 1916
Appeal from City Court of Montgomery; Gaston Gunter, Judge.
Bill by M. Scheuer and others, doing business as Scheuer & Wise against the New York Life Insurance Company, to pay to orators the true amount due on said policy. Decree for complainants, and respondent appeals. Affirmed.
W.L Martin, of Montgomery, for appellant.
Charles L. Harold, of Montgomery, for appellees.
This cause involves a policy of insurance issued on the life of John Roscoe Stewart, now deceased. The beneficiary named therein was Anna E. Stewart. The appellees claim as assignees of the policy. The amount of the insurance stated in the face of the policy was $2,000. It is said to be of the class of policies called "standard accumulation class"; the accumulation period being fixed at 20 years. The application therefor was made and taken in Duluth, Minn.; and the policy was delivered in that city on, to wit, the 19th day of April 1906. The annual premiums, stipulated to be paid in advance for 10 years, were duly paid up to and including that due the 19th day of April, 1911. In the policy it was provided:
The policy also bore these stipulations:
After paying the premium, the sixth in number, due April 19, 1911, and thereby paying for the insurance to April 19, 1912, the insured, while a resident of Alabama, borrowed from the company $458, executing therefor a "policy loan agreement" in the form provided by the company and assigning the policy as collateral security therefor. The report of the appeal will contain the body (except the sixth paragraph, which we quote below) of the instrument executed by the borrowing policy holder. The sixth paragraph of the "policy loan agreement" is this:
"That the application for said loan was made to said company at its home office in the city of New York, was accepted, the money paid by it, and this agreement made and delivered there; that said principal and interest are payable at said home office, and that this contract is made under and pursuant to the laws of the state of New York, the place of said contract being said home office of said company."
In the amended bill it is averred:
We appropriate this very satisfactory statement of the learned judge, sitting in equity, accurately outlining the case made by the amended bill:
