48 INSURANCE AT PINEY WOODS.
Court had decided it was against the law. He wanted
to know what he must do because all his policies was
fixed that way. We asked about two questions and
we saw that the trust was at the bottom of it all. They
have wrote all the polices they could with these clauses
and now they goes to the court and gets ‘em knocked
out. ‘We told Mr. Bills we could put any sort of clause
he wanted in our Lloyd’s policies and asked him what
he wanted. He said he wanted both the Three-quarter
and the Coinsurance Clause and any other good clauses
that would help hint. He said he didn’t understand
any of ‘em but now that he found out the trust com-
panies did not want to have ‘em his suspicions was
aroused and he was just bound to get policies of that
kind. Mr. Bills was not old enough to be a Confed-
erate soldier, but his uncle, old Uncle Johnny Nance,
was in the wars and had his discharge. We believe we
can get Mr. Bills in the R. E. Lee Confederate Lloyds
on that record, and trim him up with clauses that will
suit. That’s what we aim to do here. It is no trouble
to show clauses or to p-ut clauses in or leave ‘em out.
What we want to do is to satisfy our patrons and learn
thetn that fire insurance is like all other business, and
everybody is expected to make a profit out of it.
