Johnston v. Columbian Insurance

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

The proof of interest and loss were sufficient, in the first instance, to entitle the. plaintiff to recover. This is admitted by the act of the agent of the defendants, w'hich is binding on them; and the payment of the money into court was an admission qf the cause cf action, as alleged in the declaratien. The plaintiff is, therefore, entitled to judgment.

Judgment for the plaintiff.
