iP?iA"J1.:r"Sep,1?ln? sronr re'ueBt ,or. a "tatemvnt of the facte coiieerning my experieM
. . he Equitable Life Assurunee Siety of New York in their late settlement with me: fwookt
statethatin the early part fli MM, my age being 56 years, I took out a Ten-Pavment Ufe PoUey Is
the Equltebleupon their Teh-Year TonHne pran, for 40,000. My premiuinB during the peri
amounted to X3712.00. This Tontine period expired early in January of the present year, anTtS
Company thea offered we the following terms of settlement;. .... .
FIRST A paid up policy for ,.ftO,Ono 00 '
And cash 9.7fll 60
SECOND A paid up policy for. ;.. 54 6(10 00
. . THIRD Surrender roy policy, and receive in cash 36,496 0 i
I was so little satisfied with the results of my investment that I chose the third, cash, propose,
toon, but when I so decided, the company, through several of its represenUtives, labored tl indocV
me to take one of the other forma of settlement, but finding that I was determined to surrender the
policy and take the cash, they filially instructed me from the home office to send policy and recall
for the amount, 136,496.80, to their State manager in Cleveland, and he would remit me the amount.
I followed their Instructions and sent the policy and receipt through my bank in Springfield to oar
correspondent in Cleveland, only to have it returned from the Cleveland Bank with the informatlom '
that the State manager of the Equitable states that he "had not sufficient funds to meet it." This
forced me to return it to the New York office, and compelled me to wait some twenty days altar
maturity before receiving final settlement. ,
I have given no statement endorsing the Equitable, or expressing my satisfaction with their
settlement with me. On the other hand I have positively refused to do so. The fact that my re
turns were 1,015 'A) less than my total investment renders further comment unnecessary.
During the time I carried the Equitable policy and up to the day when they submitted taw
above proposition to me, I was kept In total ignorance of the condition of my investment.
In marked contrast with this has been my experience with the Northwestern, in which in 1882.
I took a Ten-Year Endowment Policy,. Ten-Year Tontine, for $10,000, that company having frwaa
time to time furnished me with a memorandum of the surplus on inv policy over the signature at
their actuary; so that while my policy has not yet matured, and will not until next year, I hv
the satisfaction of knowing that at maturity it will net me from $4,000 to $5,000 more than the faoat
of the policy calls for. Very truly yours,
ROSS MITCHELL.
