THE Company offers to the Public very important advantages, and affords by
its large paid-up Capital and accumulated Fund, with a Proprietary of nearly
One Thousand in number, an undoubted security for all its engagments.
The Company continues to effect Fire and Life Assurances, and to grant
Annuities and Endowments, on the most favorable terms.
Upwards of 5000 Life Policies have been issued.
The Constitution of this Company embraces: —
I.— A MUTUAL ASSURANCE BRANCH,
The Members of which incur no liability, while they obtain the Whole Benefit of
their contributions, — the sums assured being guaranteed, and the business conducted
by the Company for a charge of 10 per Cent, upon the Premiums without any de-
duction whatever.
The Bonus declared in 1851 (when the Institution completed its fifteenth year)
was at the rate of £1. 7s. 6d. per £100 Assured, and a Policy for £1000, opened 30th
April, 1837, is now increased to £1,202. 6s. lid.
THE NEXT INVESTIGATION will be made at 30th April, 1856, so that
Policies taken out previous to that date will be entitled to rank for a full share of the
Bonuses then to be declared.
II.— A PROPRIETOR'S BRANCH, . -
By which Assurances may be effected for fixed sums upon terms which will bear «
comparison with those of any Office of Stability in the Kingdom.
Moderate Extra Rates for Foreign Residence, and increased facilities affbrded'for
going abroad.
