LIFE INSURANCE.
The Directors recommend attention to the fact, that this Com-
tar.y has never deviated from those permanent principles on which
tos\;•as originally established, guaranteed by a Large, real, and acces-
"te, cap!tal.
th,„fieY are not unmindful of the different modes of Life Insurance
"aVe been adopted of late years, in order to attract the favour
-'',!(l attention of the public, on the principle of appropriating a share
t'euture profits to all persons assured. Such Societies, hosverr,
,11420' associations Cor mutual benefit, are necessarily attended with
for"nl disadvantages of mutual risk and liability incidental to their
their ; and however desirable it ceay be for individuals insuring
Ilee.r lives for the benefit of their own families, or immediate nomi-
• ,7 to speculate on the advantages of iMutual Assurance and Part-
'hipt ;, those who effect Life Insurances in the capacity of trus-
s, or otherwise, in the performance of a specific duty, for the con-
tllnences of which they are, or may hereafter be, held responsible,
in '"37 find that an uncertain and indefinite engagement is not only
unsuited
but repugnant to the object they have in view.
/I_4: many persons have boon deterred from offering themselves for
considering that on account of some ailment or other
e,„-:"arity of health or constitution their lives would not be ac-
til"ie'l, the Directors give notice that they receive Proposals on
NZv.' .59 affected, upon an unreserved and faithful statement of the
W Ilcular circumstances of the case, and under the professional
vice of their medical officer.
Special Insurances of this class, if approved, will be subject to
the'd .extra premium as may appear to the Directors apportioned to
risk to be undertaken by the Offiee.
offor the whole Term of Life will be purchased on terms
ef :agreed on with the parties interested, should they be desirous
the rend'lng them to the Companyloan may be obtained
urcm, in proportion to the value of the Policy.
re2rle Insurances., for short and limited periods, may be effected at
"4 ,ed rates, and with the least practicable delay.
