Death 1055 Ow Live Man in Burlington
Judge Withrow rules that an insurance company cannot recover a life policy paid on a man presumed dead for seven years. Tarvig, indebted to Chittenden Eastman & Co, hypothecated his life policy to the firm. Jarvis disappeared in 1897, declared dead in 1904, and reappeared last year, prompting the insurer to seek recovery. The court held Jarvis legally dead after seven years of absence, blocking recovery.
