McDOWELL VS. GOLDSMITH. 373
paid by her, and that the insurance thereon was in her name,
and for her benefit, down to the 1st day of January, 1845;
and that the defendant did not, at any time during the life of
said Elizabeth, effect an insurance on said property, or any part
thereof.
The bill further charges, that the said defendant was not, at

complainants afterwards applied to the defendant to permit a

2d. If for goods, wares, merchandise or property, sold and
delivered by you to her, furnish a particular account thereof,
with the prices for which they were sold, and the times of such
sales and delivery, and from whom you procured the goods, &c.,
sold to her.
3d. If you say she was indebted to you for money loaned,
or advanced to her by you, state particularly at what times, and
in what sums it was loaned, and in whose presence it was done.
If it was your own money, state how you acquired and became
possessed of it; with what bank or individual you had it on de-
posit, and whether the funds consisted of coin or paper. If it
