Rensselaer Semi-Weekly Republican, Volume 34, Number 24, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 22 November 1901 — Your Life Insured While You Wait. [ARTICLE]

Your Life Insured While You Wait.

Every person who now has the misfortune to be incarcerated in the Jasper county jail will either have to take out life insurance policies of several of the latest and most complicated brands, go into the “solitary” or be talked into nervous prostration. A. P. Baker, the insurance man, now has his talking machine installed behind the bars. Such a situation has its manifest disadvantages for a life insurance agent, as it obviously greatly circumscribes bis field of operations. but, on the other hand, those few whom he can get chin action on are where they can’t get away, and there is no help for them except surrender. Formal charges of forgery have been made against him by the Lakins, and his case is set for trial the fourth week of the present term of the circuit court.
