Mrs. Kate Morgan Asks for Settle
ment of $5,000 Policy From Uni
ted Benefit Life Ins. Co.
Forty-one people embracing four
generations, met at the pleasant
home of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Reed
of this city at their beautiful place
of abode in the western portion of
Plattsmouth. The mother. Mrs. Bry
on Reed was the oldest of the party,
which there were a number of babies
there to celebrate the occasion. There
were ten children born to the wed
lock of Mr. and Mrs. Bryon Reed.
The father died some years ago. All
of the children and their families
were present to enjoy and help oth
ers enjoy the happy occasion.
The happy occasion had been timed
to come on Christmas, which is also
a happy occasion, and it was with
glad hearts that all came to get the
entire family together once more.
There were there for the occasion,
Mrs. Bryon Reed, mother of the fam
ily; C. M. Reed and family of Mur
ray; Mr. and Mrs. Ivar Standish and
their children of Norton. Kansas:

From Monday's Dallr
An action was nied this morning
in the office of the clerk of the dis
trict court in which Mrs. Kate Mor
gan of this fcty asks for the payment
of the sum of $5,000. alleged to be
due from the United Benefit Life In
surance Co. on a policy made on the
life of Gertrude L. Morgan, deceased
daughter of the plaintiff.
The petition of the plaintiff filed
by her attorneys, Dwyer & Dwyer,
states that on June 5. 192S, the de
fendant company issued a policy on
the life of Gertrude L. Morgan in
the sum of $5,000 to be paid the
owner of the policy at the end of a
period of years or to be paid the bene
ficiary in the event of death.
The petition states that proof of
death and request for the settlement
of the policy was made by the plain
tiff on Ocober 4. 1930. and that the
defendant company has so failed to
make any settlement of the claim
and the defendant is now asked to
be sompelled to pay over the face
value of the policy.
