The Insurance Company
Grave Yard

by Lin Stone

The oldest company I have found was lost in 1880.
Years after he was gone, someone found an
old, tattered policy, and said:  "I wonder if
anyone can track this company down?"

When the beneficiaries go looking through the private papers of a loved one, none of them are hoping they picked out the cheapest insurance company that could be found.  Most beneficiaries will be hoping that the insurance company that got picked out is still around to be found.
