Description
QUA, Justice. The plaintiffs are 'trustees of Loring St. African Methodist Episcopal Church, a voluntary association, of Springfield.'
On September 24, 1935, the defendant issued a five year policy of fire insurance in the standard form, G.L.(Ter.Ed.) c. 175,
99, as amended by St.1934, c. 95, to 'Loring St. A. M. Church and its legal representatives,' covering a church
building on Loring Street in Springfield, located on premises described in the conveyances hereinafter mentioned. The initials
'A.M.' in the policy mean African Methodist. This action is brought to recover for damage to the building by a fire which
occurred on January 4, 1939. No argument has been made before us that the plaintiffs as trustees for the voluntary association are not the parties insured
in whose names the action may properly be brought. There had been a previous fire on January 3, 1938, while this same policy
was in force, and the defendant had paid its share of the loss to the trustees, and there was evidence that the settlement
had been negotiated with them.
