In Memoriam Honorable James C. Johnson 1818-1912 President Ohio Farmers Inurance Company
Westfield Center, Ohio Privately Printed 1912 Hard Cover Fine
Beautiful hard cover book printed on the occasion of the death of James C, Johnson, fifth president of what was then the Ohio Farmers Insurance Company and today's Westfield Group. A former speaker of the Ohio House of Representatives, Johnson served for over forty years from 1870-1912 and saw the company through several periods of economic downturn. Most memorable was that of 1891 when a sagging economy caused clients to cancel policies. Johnson responded by taking his horse and buggy and a satchel of cash on the road to pay out claims in person, an unconventional move that proved successful. The book features a crisp black and white cover with no faults of note. Portrait of Johnson at frontis. Text includes biography, funeral service (Baptist church Seville, Ohio) and remarks by officiant. Measures 8-1/4"x10-1/4"
