Harkins v. Quincy Mutual Fire Insurance

Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court
Harkins v. Quincy Mutual Fire Insurance, 82 Mass. 591 (Mass. 1860)
Chapman

Harkins v. Quincy Mutual Fire Insurance

Opinion of the Court

Chapman, J.

In stating his claim for loss, the plaintiff, not knowing that any part of the property was saved, made claim for a total loss, and stated the value of the property lost, and the nature and value of his interest therein. This was all that the sixth article of the by-laws required him to do in such a case. The instruction excepted to was therefore right, and the exceptions must be overruled. Exceptions overruled.
