The common usage of excluding from the benefit of Life As. ;
surance, or exposing to a forfeiture of their policies, individuals
who may have been afflicted with Gout, Asthma, Rupture, Fits,
Hemorrhage, Complaints of the Liver, Spitting of Blood, Vertigo,
or any other disease, being liable to become a source of fraud on
the etc hand, and of litigation on the other, this Society, in order
to remove every pretence for deceit or frauSulent concealment, re-
specting the actual state of health of the assured, extends the ad.
vantages of Life Assurance to persons subject to such deviations
trout the common standard of health as do not materially tend to
shorten life, upon their paying a moderate addition to the premium,
p-oroetioned to the increase of hazard.
One-half of the Board of Directors being Members of the Me-
et] Profession, the attendance of such a body of eminent prac-
i'.tioners, on every occasion of granting an assurance, forms a dis-
usguished safeguard, which cannot fail to be highly beneficial both
t, the assured and to the Society.
Persons, proposing for assurance, may arrange to pay their pre-
miums either in a single payment, by annual payment for a limited
number of years only, or by annual payments throughout the whole
continuance of life.
The person assured has the option to share the profits, either by
adding them to the policy, for the benefit of his survivors, at his
decease ; or, by taking them in reduction of the annual premium,
fur his own benefit during life.
