13HCENIX LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY,
1, LEADENHALL-STREET, LONDON.

ESTABLISHED 1848

In consequence of an advertisement having been inserted in
the Times, by the Phoenix Fire Office, stating that "that Office
has recently been threatened with the withdrawal of the busi-
ness of parties insured there, if a claim was not paid, which on
inquiry proved' to be under a Policy -of, the. Phcenix •Marine
Office,', meaning thereby the Phoenix Life Assurance Company,
and referring to an Injunction obtainedagainst that Company ;
the Directors of the Phmnix' Life Assurance Company directed
their Solicitors to apply to the. Secretary of 'the Phoenix Fire
Office for the particulars of the claim alleged not to have been
paid, and received an answer from the Solicitors of that Office,
stating "that the,Ciaim alluded to arose from an insurance on
the ' St. LaurenCe.' "
Now, this Insurance was effected with the Phoenix Life
Assurance Company for the sum of £2,100 upon goods ; and in
the month of June last, a claim was made thereon for average
to the extent of about £6B, but the Directors of the Company,
upon investigation, considered the claim so questionable that
they proposed to refer it to Mr. Richards, the well-known
average stater, to adjudicate thereon, since, which no further
communication has been received from the assured, who have
neither adopted the suggestion of suchreference, nor made any
further demand in respect 'of such Insurance consideringmost probably their demand to be wholly untenable.
Such is the amount and such the nature of the claim which
the Phmnix Fire Office have thought proper to advertise as a
claim which the Phoenix Life Assurance Company have not paid,
it being the evident intention of such advertisement to lead the
public to suppose that the Company had been either unable or
Unwilling to pay a claim justly due.
The Directors of the Company then instructed their solicitors
to apply to the solicitors of the Phoenix Fire-office, for the
names and addresses of the parties who had threatened to
withdraw their business from that office, as alleged in their
advertisement, and in answer received a letter stating " that
the Directors of the Phoenix Fire Assurance Company decline
furnishing the further information called for."
At this very time the Directors of the Phcenix 'Life Assnr-
anee Company had in their possession proof of their accusers
being open to the very charge which they were so ready to
bring against others. For on the 19th of July last there was
delivered at the Office o the Phcenix Lije Asittrance Company
a letter of appliCation from a Solicitor, for 'the sum of
£4BO Bs. 2d., in respect of a loss occasioned by fire, • which
happened on the 23rd June last, such letter being evidently
intended for the Phoenix Fire - Assurance Company, and
stating that the particulars of the claim had been furnished
three weeks previously to the date of such letter, and pressing
for payment.
rite Secretary of the Life Company, instead -of considering
;such letter a flt subject for a public advertisement injuriously
reflecting upon the characterof another Company, immediately
returned it to the writer, informing him of his mistake in
addressing it to'the Phmnix Life. Assurance Company, instead
