Danville, Va\, Nov. 22-.?The
Supreme Court of Virginia has
awarded a writ of error in the case
\>i the Queen Insurance Company
against A. J. Perkinson, a Dan
ville policeman, -who sued the con
cern for a claim as a result, of the
destruction- by fire of a house he
owned. /
A jury some months ago awards
ed the. cfficqr $1,000. -The insur
ance company declined to pay the
claici because the fire was an un
usvial one.
Walter Clark, a negro desperado
after killing a' policeman, and
wounding two more, took refuge
in the house in question while a
posse besieged.it. Finally to bring
the negro out, : burning gasoline
was sprayed on the roof. The ne
gro was driven out, only to fall rid
dled by bullets. The company de
clined to pay the^-claini on / the
ground that the fire was inciden
tal to a'riot and that a clause.In the
?policy provided; for Sihis very con
tingency. ; ;
