Excerpt from Fire Insurance and How to Build: Combining Also a Guide to Insurance Agents Respecting Fire Prevention and Extinction, Special Features of Manufacturing Risks, Writing of Policies, Adjustment of Losses Etc., Etc
If this work fails to secure the approval of my readers, I can still feel myself their debtor for past favors, and comfort myself with the reflection that, at least, its compilation of important facts and happenings may furnish foundation for others to build upon, and so prove a benefit to the business of insurance - a business worthy of the best efforts of its ablest men, who will continue to work out the problem of adjusting its methods and economies to a point where it will be no greater tax upon the community than is necessary to protect that community from its most insidious and destructive enemy.
