The incidents of the book relates chiefly to service in the West, including the country embraced by Kansas. Col. Cooke is well remembered by old settlers of Kansas, having been en duty at Lecompton, Lawrence and elsewhere in the Territory in 1850. Traveler's Life and Accident Insurance Co's Olce. 181 Kansas Topeka, May 28, 1882.

To Whom Can Judge: I note the published let! letter of Mr. J. M.J Auuer. in wmcfl ne 1 1 1 I 1 endeavors to cast dis credit upon the Travelers, by. saying "I 1 a a tfer rr i wrVl "ppucauon ior fa.wu, ana me wmuHUY asiveu to pay 940 per weeK in- demnity in case of accident.

On the 3d of July following he met a disabling injury, and on August 14th made out a claim forsix weeks indemnity or $150. After the claim had hung fire a month longer waiting for Mr. AshePs cer tificate it was completed and forwarded to tne borne olnce for adjustment. Upon ex amination of the case as presented, two difficulties were encountered to delay pay-ment. First.

Mr. Asher. who filled out claimants certificate, stated the cause of the injury so ambiguously thev could not deter mine whether or not Mr. Graves was enti tled to indemnity. Secondly.

Mr. Asher has pocketed the premium paid him by Mr. Graves ana tney naa nc record to show that any in surance had ever been issued. A special agent was sent to investigate the case and make inquiries relative to the manner of receiving the injury. AH things were found satisfactory, the claim was naid in full.

and Mr. Asher requested to forward the premium to the company. No compromise was ever talked pf or authorized by the nome omce. At tne time this claim was paia jut. uraves wrote a cam ior public huu, tue j.rareta-8 Ul CIS ttAAAVMMt.vi:-.
