Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a comprehensive account of a fascinating legal battle that unfolded in 1860. The case pitted The Reverend Thomas P. Hodge against the State Insurance Company, after a fire destroyed his home and all of its contents. Hodge claimed to have lost a vast quantity of valuable possessions, including an extensive library, a remarkable cabinet of shells, and a large collection of silver and jewelry. The insurance company, however, suspected fraud, and the ensuing legal battle exposed the depths of Hodge's deception and the lengths he went to in order to collect on the insurance policy. The case also sheds light on the social and economic conditions of the time, providing a glimpse into the complexities of Victorian society. This book will appeal to those interested in legal history, true crime, and Victorian culture.
