• 88 Ill. 426

Syllabus

<p>Fraud—representations not known to be untrue. A party procuring another to accept an agency of an insurance company, will not be liable to the latter from the mere fact that his written representations as to what the company would do turn out to be untrue. It must appear that he knew their falsity, and the other party relied upon the same, and sustained damage in consequence thereof.</p>
