This Society is established on the tried and approveeprinriple
of Mutual Assurance. The funds are accumulated fur the exclu-
.ve benefit of the Policy-holders, under their own immediate
superintendence and control. The profits are divided annually,
and applied in reduction of the current premiums. Policy.
holders participate in profits after payment of five annual pre-
miums.

The Annual General Meeting was held on the 18th May, 16L6,
when a highly satisfactory Report of the State of the affairs and
progress of the institution was presented to the Members.
During the last three years upwards of 1.200 new assurances
have been effected, yielding an increase of premium income of
more than 20,0001 ;et. annum ; and, although a general high
rate of mortality has prevailed among assured lives during the
last two years, it has not been deemed necessary to reduce. in
the slightest degree, the allowances previously awarded to the
policy-holders.
The Members present at the Meeting were fully satisfied with
the Report. and resolved unanimously that a reduction of 31i
per cent. should be made in the current ear's Preidium payable
by al policy...older' now entitled to pal ticipale in the Profits.
Credit is allowed for half the Annual Premiums for the first
ate years.
