ERROR to the district court for Lancaster county: ALBERT J CORNISH, JUDGE. Affirmed.
AFFIRMED.
Willard E. Stewart, Frank M. Tyrrell, George A. Adams and Samuel B Iams, for plaintiff in error.
Walter J. Lamb, Joseph Wurzburg and Thomas Jefferson Graydon contra.
ALBERT, C. GLANVILLE and BARNES, CC., concur.
This is an action on a life insurance policy issued by the defendant, a mutual company, on the life of Wm. H. H. Rader, in which the plaintiff, who at the time of its issuance was the wife of the assured, is named as the beneficiary. By a subsequent marriage, she took the name under which she prosecutes this action. The policy was issued in March, 1901, and the assured died June 15 of the same year. A copy of the policy is attached to the petition and the money consideration for its issuance, appearing on the face thereof, is $ 4.12, payable in advance, and a like sum on the first day of each month thereafter during the life of the policy. On the back of the policy, and as a part of the contract of insurance, is the following condition:
Referring to the foregoing condition, the plaintiff in her petition alleges as follows:
Upon grounds not necessary to mention, the administrator of the assured intervened. The petition of intervention also refers to the condition on the back of the policy, and in respect thereto alleges:
Neither the petition of the plaintiff nor that of the intervener contains any allegations, other than those hereinbefore set out, in regard to the payment of the monthly premiums required by the terms of the policy or any general allegation of performance of his part of the contract by the assured.
The answers to the plaintiff's petition and to the petition of intervention, so far as concerns the present inquiry, are substantially the same. Both open with a denial of "each and every allegation not herein expressly admitted," and admit the issuance of the policy as alleged in such petition. In respect to the condition on the back of the policy and the payment of the monthly premiums, both answers contain the following allegations:
