In 11)01,North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company?then dent Association?began doing bus iness in South Carolina. A publication issued by the company in Marjh of that year was this on Ma * the South Carolina peoples "The PP people of that section have a good deal of race pride. They are a kind who like to encourage Negi o enterprise." In the thirty .seven years we have been operating there we have found this to be true and to it we attribute our sue 9h ? CL C .SPATTT.DTNG, President, every Insurance Commissioner ol South Carolina fair, tolerant, and constructive in his criticisms, and we have always enjoyed the confidence of the South Carolina In. surance Department One year after the Association entered South Carolina, th legislature passed a law requiring all foreign life insurance companies doing business in th<A -t&tate -tc deposit $10,000 with the Insurant Department for the protection oi South Carolina policyholdei s. A' that time the company did no' have enough assets to comply with the law; but John Merrick, oui founder, and Dr. A. M. Moore, co? founder, came to the rescue, mortgaging their personaP'reiil estate to raise the money. Ten days after the Insurance Commissionei had given notice to the company the general manager, C. C. Sp?ul ding, went to Columbia and gave a draft on the Fidelity Bank ol Durham for $10,000. This won the confidence of the people and addec a large" volume of business to t he new company. At fViut limn th.ro were nvet '.'ft small life i surance companies doing business in South Cs rolina ;'nd our company was far-eil wit! them over and protecting thei: policyholders or allowing them t( go out of business*. thereby de nriving those policyholders of tht h- nefits of the premmras thnyhac ' paid.
