This is a suit for indemnity, under an accident insurance policy, for the death of Mrs. Connie Carroll. The policy was issued by the Century Indemnity Company to Mrs. Carroll in her lifetime. The suit was tried before a jury, but at the conclusion of the testimony the trial court peremptorily instructed a verdict for the plaintiff for the amount of the policy, and judgment was entered accordingly. The Indemnity Company appealed and the Court of Civil Appeals affirmed said judgment. 55 S. W. (2d) 873.
