AN INSURANCEfCASE,
At the Supreme Court, in the case Hallister y. Accident Insurance Company of New Zealand, the Attorney-General for the company argued that the amount of the policy could not be recovered, as notice of the accident which caused the death of Hallister had not been given within seven days as required by the policy. Justice Richmr.nd asked whether Buch a condition would stand good in a" case where a person disappeared, and it was not known for some time afterwards that he was dead. The Attorney-General said that that appeared to be so. His Honor replied that if the public were aware of that; state of things he did not think companies insuring against accidents would do much business. His Honor entered up judgment for defendants.
