Betts. Betts...found a 20-year-old transfer of funds from the participating department to the stock department. Aetna asserted that the transfer was a legitimate compensation of shareholders for providing the capital to start the participating department. But Betts believed that Aetna improperly took money from policyholders to benefit stockholders and filed a civil suit against Aetna. Neither side profited from the endeavor. Betts ran out of funds before he could complete his case and had to accept an out-of-court settlement. For his trouble Betts was later falsely accused of accepting a bribe from Morgan Bulkeley to drop the suit. For its part, Aetna denied any wrongdoing, but had to replace the funds with interest and pay the state's legal costs." reprinted from History of Aetna 5/26/1896 Amended Articles of The Grand Lodge of Ohio Knights of Pythias, Cinncinnati, Ohio, Hamilton County (Wells Fargo Bank) Norwest Bank Wisconsin East Central 636 Wisconsin Avenue Sheboygan,WI 53081 FDIC Certificate #: 1023 Date Established: 7/7/1896 7/8/1896 Plans to build a pipeline for the Indiana oil fields to Whiting were made public; Indy oil fields were spreading 7/27/1896 Death of Eliza H.
