When Boston
Burned
After the disastrous $80,000,000
conflagration that swept Boston in
1872, a Boston newspaper paid trib
ute to the Hartford Fire Insurance
Company's prompt and liberal set
tlement oi its $485,315 in losses.
"All adjusted claims were paid at
sight," said this newspaper, "with
out discount or delay. Such a record
is its own argument (or integrity,
ability and determination."
The Hartford has promptly paid
every just claim lor 106 years. There
is a feeling of security in having
your insurance in a company you
are so sure of.
