After the policies were issued to deceased he paid premiums upon them for about seventeen weeks. He then delivered the policies to the agent through whom he had procured them and requested the agent to deliver them to Dr. Smith, the respondent herein, stating that he could not pay the premiums any longer and that Dr. Smith would pay the premiums. The agent testified: "He came to me and told me that he couldn't pay them any longer and he handed the policies to me and he wanted me to take them over and give them to Dr. Smith." The agent delivered the policies to Dr. Smith, who paid premiums on them in the sum of $373.20. The amount of the policies is $607.20. They specified no designated beneficiary. Upon decedent's death petitioner herein demanded the policies, which demand was refused by respondent upon the ground that the policies were given to him by deceased. Decree and order unanimously affirmed, with costs to the respondent against the appellant.
