War Risk Insurance Suit Filed in Federal Court
Mrs Liezie Bates Whitlow filed a federal suit against the United States government to recover 6009 on a war risk insurance policy held by her son Samuel Whitlow who died in 1890. The policy, taken during his service, lapsed after he could not keep premiums due to ill health post discharge. In a separate matter, W D Kinder as administrator of Elizabeth Kinder estate pursued 10000 against Chesapeake and Ohio railroad but the suit was dismissed on counsel’s motion.
