PROSPECTUS.
This Company is formed, not for the purpose of establish-
ing a new Marine Insurance Office in rivalry with offices
already opened, but with the object of continuing the existing
Maritime Insurance business so long conducted by Mr. Henry
Case, under the firm of Price and Co., in Exchange-buildings,
Liverpool.
Mr. Case's services, as underwriter, have been secured
upon terms satisfactory to the Directors, dependent in part
upon the success of the Company, and without the payment
of any "promotion money," either in cash or shares.
It is anticipated that whilst the extensive connection al-
ready possessed by Messrs. Price and Co. will be retained
and consolidated by the formation of a Company, the busi-
ness will, at the same time, be considerably increased in
consequence of Marine Insurance Companies being now very
generally preferred to private underwriters.
The success which has attended the operations of Marine
Insurance Companies in Liverpool, may be gathered from
the present value of their Shares in the market, viz. :
Amount Present Equal
paid. price. to
The Thames and Mersey £2 £7 0 0 250 percent. pm.
The British and Foreign 2 415 0 137 „
The Union 2 5 1 3 166 „
The Empire
The Albion .... •
The Mercantile

The strictest economy will be exercised in working, and the
preliminary expenses will consist solely of the actual neces-
sary disbursements and legal charges.
Applications for Shares must be accompanied by a payment
of £1 per share, which will be retained on account of the full
payment of £2 per share on the number of shares which may
be allotted to the applicant, and will be liable to forfeiture it
payment of the remaining .£1 per share be not made at the
time to be stated in the notice of allotment.
Forms of application for shares may be obtained from the
brokers, and also at the temporary offices of the Company,
4 and 5, Brown's-buildings, Liverpool.
In cases where no allotments are made, the deposit will be
returned without deduction.
