If this company had sustained an aver age loss in the year of the great FARGO FIRE which is the heaviest this state has ever sustained, our loss would have been $28,378.00, as the losses that year were $1,219,803.00, which forty-three companies paid thus we could have received an average loss in the most disastrous year this state has ever known and in the above condition paid it in full and still returned our notes as a dividend to oilr policy holders.
