— This action was in the Knox Circuit Court by the appellee against the appellant, upon a life insurance policy issued by the appellant on the life of William H. Wathen for $2,000, and payable to appellee’s ward, Herman W. Wathen, as beneficiary. The issues were a complaint, answer of two paragraphs, and a reply in denial to the second paragraph of answer.

*147The case was submitted to a jury for trial, which returned a verdict for appellee. After motion for a new trial was overruled, the defendant appealed. The only error assigned in this court is the error of the court in overruling appellant’s motion for a new trial, under which appellant contends that the court erred in refusing to give each of four instructions tendered by appellant, each of which said instructions present the question of whether there was a proper tender by appellant to appellee upon appellant’s attempted rescission of the insurance contract. No other error is presented.

The policy sued upon contains the following provisions :

“In consideration of the application for this policy a copy of which application is attached hereto and made a part hereof, and a payment of the annual premium of $68.25 receipt of which is hereby .acknowledged said policy is issued.” And “It is further declared and agreed that the foregoing statements and answers and also the statements and answers to the medical examiner are correct and wholly true and that they shall form the basis of the contract of insurance if one be issued.”

In his application for insurance, the insured made answers to certain questions propounded to him in writing, to the effect that he had never been an inmate or visitor of an asylum, hospital, or sanitarium for treatment; that he had no medical attendant; that the services of a, medical attendant had not been required for anything; that he had not been confined to the' house by illness since childhood; that he had had no *148illness since childhood; that he drank an occasional glass of whisky, but that he had never used alcoholic stimulants, wine, or malt liquor, or tobacco to excess. Appellant avers by its second paragraph of answer that these statements, and each of them, were false and fraudulent, and were known to be so by the insured at the time he made them, and when he signed his application and applied for the insurance; that he was not in good health at the time he made said application, but* was at the time a habitual drunkard, and had been for more than three years; that he was at said time suffering from acute alcoholism and drank alcoholic liquors to excess; that he had been under the care of a physician and confined to his home at various times during the year preceding his application with sickness caused by his excessive use of intoxicating liquors; that during the year prior to his said application he was an inmate of St. Anthony’s Hospital in the city of Terre Haute, Indiana, upon three different occasions, suffering from acute alcoholism, and was confined to his bed and under the care of physicians and nurses for more than two weeks at a time, and that, in fact, he died of acute alcoholism as a result of excessive use of intoxicating liquors, within one month and twenty days from the date of his said policy of insurance, in said St. Anthony’s Hospital; that said appellant relied upon said statements in said insured’s application and examination, and had no knowledge of their falsity at or before the delivery of the policy, and not until after the death of the insured. Then follow averments of an offer to return the premium to the appellee as soon as she was appointed guardian, and her refusal to accept, and the payment of the same into court for the use of appellee.

*149It appears by uncontradicted evidence, offered by both appellant and appellee, that prior to November 20, 1914, the date of the issue of the policy, the insured had been a habitual drunkard, and that within two years prior thereto he had been confined in hospitals and sanitariums fourteen times, suffering from acute alcoholism. On the day he made application for his insurance he had drunk between midnight and noon a quart of whisky, and then he left the house in a drunken condition. Going to a barber shop, he went in staggering, and while there the agent of the insurance company came in and solicited his insurance. When he finished shaving, he staggered over to a chair and sat down, where the insurance agent filled out his application, which he signed. He then produced a check book, in which the agent filled out the check for the amount of the premium, and he signed it. He went home drunk, and took a quart of whisky with him, and drank frequently during the night and the next morning, consuming the entire quart of whisky, and in the afternoon went to the appellant’s medical examiner to be examined. Later he returned home in a drunken condition. These facts are not disputed by either party.

1. The jury returned a general verdict in favor of the appellee, and thereby found every material fact legitimately provable under the issues, in her .favor. Cleveland, etc., R. Co. v. Harvey (1910), 45 Ind. App. 153, 90 N. E. 318; Keesling v. Ryan (1882), 84 Ind. 89.

2. This included, in addition to the foregoing undisputed facts, the further fact, denied by appellant, that appellant’s soliciting agent and medical examiner both knew of the drunken condition of the insured, that he *150was afflicted with acute alcoholism, that he had been under the care of a physician, and tha/t he had repeatedly been in a hospital for treatment. In view of the foregoing statement of surrounding circumstances, we must hold that the jury was fully justified' in its findings as to appellant’s knowledge.

3. Further, the undisputed statement, as to the drunken condition and habits of the insured, together with the fact that the soliciting agent filled out the application and the check for the payment of the premium, justified the jury’s finding that the insured’s conduct was not fraudulent.

4. The acts of the insured not being fraudulent, and the company’s agent having knowledge of the facts that otherwise would have avoided the policy, the representations of the insured did not invalidate it. Home v. Provident Fund Society (1893), 7 Ind. App. 587, 34 N. E. 830; Traders Ins. Co. v. Cassel (1900), 24 Ind. App. 238, 56 N. E. 259; Supreme Tribe of Ben Hur v. Lennert (1912), 178 Ind. 122, 98 N. E. 115; Pickel v. Phoenix Ins. Co. (1889), 119 Ind. 291, 21 N. E. 898; 25 Cyc 803.

,5-6. Having reached the conclusion that the policy was valid, the question of rescission and tender is not involved, and error, if any, in refusing to give the instructions tendered was harmless. Had they been correct statements of the. law as applied to this case, they were substantially covered by the instructions given by the court.

The judgment is affirmed.
