Error to Sanilac; Beach, J. Assumpsit by Charles Fisk against the Liverpool & London & Globe Insurance Company, Limited, on a policy of insurance. Judgment for plaintiff on a directed verdict. Defendant brings error.
1Opinion of the CourtBrooke, J.
(after stating the facts). The sole question raised upon this record is whether the acts of Phillips, his statements and admissions, and the as*274sertion of Mrs. Murdaugh, the local agent, taken together, were sufficient to‘support the inference that Phillips was in fact the adjuster for the defendant company. If that fact was sufficiently established, his denial of liability on the part of the company constituted a waiver of the filing of proofs of loss. Popa v. Insurance Co., 192 Mich. 237 (158 N. W. 945); Fisk v. Fire Ass'n, 192 Mich. 243 (158 N. W. 947).
