    "head_matter": "Ernest Ellenbogen, Appellee, v. Frankfort General Insurance Company, Appellant.\nGen. No. 22,452.\n(Not to be reported in full.)\nAppeal from the Municipal Court of Chicago; the Hon. Edmund K. Jarecki, Judge, presiding. Heard in this court at the March term, 1916.\nAffirmed on remittitur; otherwise reversed and remanded.\nOpinion filed November 27, 1916.\nStatement of the Case.\nAction by Ernest Ellenbogen, plaintiff, against Frankfort General Insurance Company, defendant, for loss under a policy of indemnity insurance and for return of unearned premiums. From a judgment for plaintiff, defendant appeals.\nW. C. Shockey and C. W. Greenfield, for appellant.\nMoses, Rosenthal & Kennedy, for appellee; Robert Baohraoh, of counsel.\nAbstract of the Decision.\n1. Insurance, \u00a7 150 \u2014Who has authority to receive premium payment. Where an insurance company delivers a policy to a party, to be delivered to the insured, it thereby clothes such party with authority to receive payment of the premiums, so that the receipt ,of payment by the party is receipt by the company.\n2. Insurance, \u00a7 151*\u2014when payment of premium by Chech to agent is payment to company. In the absence of evidence that the attention of an insured was called to a recital in a bill for a premium, that checks should be made payable to the company, payment by check made payable personally to an agent delivering, the policy, held payment to the company.\n3. Insurance, \u00a7 679*\u2014when insured\u2019s hnowledge of scope of agent\u2019s authority is question for jury. In an action on an insurance policy, evidence held to present a question for the jury as to whether the insured was, by recital in a bill for the premium that payment should be made by check to the company, put upon notice that payment to an agent presenting a bill would be at the risk of the insured.\n4. Insurance, \u00a7 661*\u2014when evidence shows authority of agent. In an action on an insurance policy, evidence that the party who delivered the policy to the insured and who received a check in payment of the premium was charged with the premium on the books of the company and credited with the commission, and testimony of the company\u2019s manager that only authorized agents were charged with premiums and held accountable therefor, and that he agreed to pay such party a commission for placing the policy, held sufficient to justify a finding that such party was an authorized agent of the company.\n5. Insurance, \u00a7 190*\u2014what constitutes cancellation by insured. In an action to recover unearned premiums on insurance policies, held that the return of the policies by the insured, after refusal of the company to pay a loss, with a request that they be canceled was a cancellation by the insured within the meaning of a provision of the policy, which provided that in such case the amount of premium earned.should be calculated according to a certain specified rate.\nSee Illinois Notes Digest, Vols. XI to XV, and Cumulative Quarterly, same topic and section number."
