PROSPECTUS.
This Company is formed, nut 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.
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. :
