the applicants to the benefit, of the payment of that year's
Premium, in reference to the approaching period of invee-
tigatiou, renders it necessary to repeat the NOTICE, that
all Proposals of Assurance intended to be submitted to
the Directors, at the Weekly Court held every Monday,
mint be lodged with the Manager, (or with the Agents in
Glasgow and elsewhere, in sufficient time to admit of their
being received at the Dead Office) on or before the Satur-
day preceding, otherwise they cannot be taken into consi-
deration till a subsequent Court.
