1907 Tobacco Insurance Company Report

     This posting is a follow-up to the previous posting about the Night Riders.  It may be a little technical but it adds a little information about what was happening in the so-called Green River District (which I think is a term used within the insurance industry). The Insurance Field is a book published by the insurance industry containing various reports and articles filed in Chicago, Louisville and Atlanta intended for those companies selling insurance.  This book contained a report about the status of insuring tobacco in Kentucky in 1907, the height of the Night Rider era.  The report was submitted by the President of the Kentucky Board of Underwriters, Mr. B. F. Weitzel.  The report is too long to include all of it so I have just included the section that has to do with the area that includes Ohio County.
