FIRE and LIFE ASSURANCES may be effected with this Cor-
poration on advantageous terms.
The Assured are exempt from the liabilities of partnership, and
payment of their claims is guaranteed by a large invested capital-
dock.
In the Life Department, assurances are granted with participation
in profits, or, at lower Premiums, without such participation.
The Reversionary BONUS on Life Policies has averaged 2 per
Cent. per annum on the sum assured, or 46 per cent. on the Premiums

paid.
Any sum not exceeding 10,0001. may be assured en one Life.
The Corporation bears the cost of Policy Stamps and Medical Fees,
and requires no entrance-money. The Assured are subject to no
expense but the Premium. No extra charge is made for service in the
militia.
LOANS are granted on Life Policies to their full values.
This Corporation affords all the advantages of modern practice,
with the stability of an office safely constituted under Royal Charter
and Special Acts of Parliament, and tested by the experience of
nearly a century and a half. There is but one older life office in
existence.
