Syllabus

<p>SYLLABUS BY THE COURT.</p> <p>Benefit Insurance — Forfeiture—Nonpayment of Dues Within Prescribed Time — Waiver. Where a beneficiary association places its rejection of the claim of a beneficiary upon the distinct ground of forfeiture for failure to pay the dues of a certain month within the time prescribed by the by-laws, it thereby waives any defense it may have arising out of the failure to pay at the proper times the dues of two preceding months, such payments having been received and credited out of time, by the proper officer of the local council.</p>
