In referenv to the very large increase of £76,000 in the
Pire premiums of the year, it was remarked in the Report,
"The premiums paid to a company are the measure of that
company's business of all kinds ; the Directors, therefore,
Prefer that test of progress to any the duty collected may
afford, as that applies to only a part of a company's business,
and a large share of that part may be, and often is, re-insured
With other offices. In this view the yearly addition to the
Fire premiums of the Liverpool and London Company must
be very gratifying to the proprietors."
