JUDGMENT AGAINST FIRE CO.
A case which has aroused more
than usual amount of interest among
the farmers of the Township west
and north of Exeter was tried at the
Assizes at Goderich this week be
fore Mr. Justice Fisher, of Toronto.
The defendants were The Hay Town
ship Farmers Mutual Fire Insurance
Company and judgment was entered
against them in favor of the plain
tiff, Mr. Owen Geiger, of Hensall for
the sum of $145 0. Last Thanks
giving Day the barn of Mr. Geiger’s
Tuckersmith farm was destroyed by
fire and along with it the contents
which consisted largely of hay and
a quantity of flax grown on the
farm. The company refused to pay
the loss because of the flax being in
the barn. Mr. Geiger claimed that
as it had been grown on the place
it was “farm produce” which the
policy was supposed to cover and
sued the company in the Hig,h Court.
During the progress of the case the
Judge intimated very strongly that
he thought the company should have
settled the claim, remarking that
flax was a common farm product
and that if the company did not in
tend to include it in their policies
they should notify their policy hold
ers to that effect. He urged the
directors and manager who were in
court to settle the claim which they
did. Mr. Geiger received many
congratulations from farmers in the
court, room who felt that he was
fighting for the rights of all the.
policyholders. Among Mr. Geiger’s
witnesses were a number of other
farmers companies who are taking
flax as farm risks without question.
The company was defended by Mr. T.
J. Agar, K.C., of Toronto, while Mr.
J. G. Stanbury and Mr. M. F. Glad
man, of Exeter, acted for Mr. Geiger.
