INSURANCE MONEYS
COURT OF APPEAL CASE. By Telegraph—Press Association. Wellington, March 14. The case for the T. and G. Society was continued this morning before the Court of Appeal by Mr. O’Leary. Tho next defence raised by him was that the payment by the T. and G. Society was a good payment in that there was evidence that there had been ratification by Mrs. Johnson of the receipt by her husband of the money. The T. and G. Society had paid out on two documents. One claim form admittedly was signed by Mrs. Johnson and the other was the receipt which Mrs. Johnson denied having signed. If the receipt was genuine then, counsel urged, his client company was entitled to succeed even although all the other contested documents were proved to be forgeries. It could not be doubted that the receipt suffered from its association with the other contested documents. Mr. O’Leary stressed the point that, the signature on the receipt did not contain the unusual initial “E” found on the oilier contested documents. r I ’nx’Pf'd i n r > ).
