The Indisputable Life Policy Company, established in 18 18, intro duced a valuable improvement into the practice of Life Assurance, by making Lite Policies certain and absolute documents of complete security. . Instead of being merely doubtful instruments, like ordinary poll des, depending for their validity upon numerous questions which are kept open until the claims arise, then to be discussed, this comPaRY take upon themselves the duty of making all necessary inquiries as to the life proposad before granting the policy, which, wheuissued, becounes , an indisputable document of debt. To remove all'ilotibts on this important subject, a elausn to that effect was inserted in the Deed of Incorporation of the Company, and registered in terms df the Act 7 and S Viet., c. 110, whereby indisputability is made binding on the Company, tnd is guaranteed to the insured; A reduction of 25 per cent, has been made on the premiums of all policies of five years' standing.
