Supreme Court of Florida July 15, 1941 (Mutual Life Insurance Co. of New York v. Bell)

lead-opinion

Adams, J.

This action was to recover double the value of a life insurance policy. The body of Dudley H. Snellgrove was found early one morning in his yard with his double barrel shot-gun near his body. There was no evidence of a struggle or fight. He had recently been killed by a gunshot which entered at or near his left nipple ranging directly into his body.
