Persons insured for Life in th's Office share the profits septen.
nially with the original Members, according to their respective con-
tributiona. Thus, by the specific rums insured, and coutingen
profits, they have the fullest value for their payments, in a manner
nearly similar to that formerly adopted in the Equitable Office, but
with this presumed improvement, viz. that as the original Members
have raised a permanent fund, deemed amply sufficient fur the put..
pose of indemnity, it is provided that no personal responsibility
shall attach to the policy-holders ; hence those who seek protection
are secured from uncertainty and risk of loss, as in a Proprietary
Office having a large inheritable capital, and are entitled to a par.
ticipstion in the profits, as in a Union Society.
Military Men insured at this Office are not charged with any ad-
ditional premium, unless called into actual service.
Persons insured by this Office, not being mariners in the exercise
of their profession, are at liberty to pass and repass by sea in whole.
decked vessels, or steam-boats, from one part of the United King-
clom to another; and also, in time of peace, in like manner, from
British to Foreign Ports between the Texel and Brest inclusive,
without license and extra premium.
Persons removing to unhealthy climates, or subject to bodily in-
firmities, may be insured, upon a full disclosure of the facts, and
the payment of proportionate additional premiums.
If any person who has insured his Life in this Office die by sig.
side, duelling, or the hands of justice, his representatives may re-
ceive the full value which his policy bore on the day previous to
the time of his death.
