PERSONS losureil for Lifein this Office
share the Profits SEPTENNIALLY with the original
Members, according In their respective Coutrilnitions :
Thus, by the specific sums insured, and contingent profits,
they have the fullest value for their payineuts, in a manner
nearly similar to that until lately adopted in the Equibikle

the original Members have raised a permanent. Fund, deem-
ed amply sufficient for the purpose of indemnity, it is pro-
vided, that no personal responsibility shall attach to the
Policy holders. Hence those who seek protection are seenred
from uncertainty and risk of loss as its a Proprietary Oilier,
having a large inheritable Capital, end are entitled to a par-
ticipation in the Profits, as io a Union Society.
