(Zhe high comparative position held by the Royal in the

7.1,e very gratifying duty now falls upon the Directors to
Rate the sum assured on new policies for the year 1862
Iceeds even that of the year 1861 by £lBO,OOO, and has arrived
iat the almost unexampled amount for a single year of
"701,127 on 1,408 new policies issued. Until within the last
I,"r years it is believed that such a sum aesured as that which
"as Just been announced as the result of one year's business
has all but unheard of.
This portion of the Company's business has been carefully
tvatched, and cannot fail to give much satisfaction to the
shareholder, as well as no small encouragement for the
lutnre to the participating life assurer.
Evidence of continued care in the selection of lives is amply
afforded by a statement of the number rejected. These have
amounted to 311 for the year, on which the aggtregate sum
proposed for assuranne amounts to 1.13.28 I. Various degrees
of ineligibility have led to these lives being declined.
No small number of the Assurance Companies of the da record their accepted lives annually at a sum not muds. if at all, exceeding those which the Royal has declared as in admis-
Floe in a single year from deterioration of some kind or
another.
lif, to complete their review, the Directors now advert
prietiv to the United Kingdom, they have to announce that

"Mount of New Policies already reported make all other
ri,lenee needless.

O,pressionot an opinion that the prospects of the Royal
suranca Company ere never brighter, and of
the pao-, a consequent
"Pe, toandcd on a grateful remembrance of that
