— Appellant issued a policy of insurance to one George H. Hunt, wherein it agreed to pay to the wife of said Hunt, appellee herein, the sum of $300, should the insured meet with an accident, resulting in his death within ninety days thereafter. George H. Hunt paid a membership fee, and made monthly payments of $1.50 up to and including the month in which he was hilled. During the summer of 1906, the insured was a night watchman at a mill near Crenshaw, Mississippi. On the night of July 17, 1906, he fell from a foot bridge, and suffered injuries from which he died ten days later.
The judgment is affirmed.
