THE business of this Society was commenced on Wed-
nesday. the 23.1 of June. instant, dt the temporary Office,
No.M, Great Rowll.street, Bloomsbury, where instnictions for
Policies will be received, until the Offices of the Society shall be
rdscir for the reception of the Establishment.
The recent discussions in Parliament, respecting Joint Stork
Companies, make it important to observe, that the Shareholders of
the resent Society incur no responsibility whatever beyond the
amount of their respective subscriptions ; and that the nature and
object of the Institution render it totally unnecessary to apply either
to the Crown or the Parliament for a Charter.
Persons Assured for the whole term of Life will enjoy a liberal
share of the Profits with the original Proprietors, their proportions
bin? added to the actual sums Assured, and left to accumulate for
the I,ellllfit of their successors, or applied in diminution of the
annual payments of premiums, at theiroptioo.
A 'ruling principle of this Institution is to extend the advantage
of Life Assarance to Persons subject to such deviations from the
common standard of health, as do not essentially tend to shorten
life, upon their acceding to the following conditions, viz.—
First—That they make an affidavit. stating the nature of their
complaints, the dates of their first attacks, sod the names and ad.
dresses of the medical practitioners who attended them then, or in
air subsequent returns of their disorders.
Second—Tint they pay an increased premium proportioned to
the increase of ha:ord.
The Society will grant Annuities, Endowments for Children,
lea, and will purchase Annuities. Reversions. and other contingent
interests. J. PINCKARD. Resident Secretary.
