Decembe-, 1853 —1.104.
Under the following heads are briefly enumerated the leading
principles of this Society :
OBJECTS OF TIIE
1. A Life Assurance may be effected either by One Payment, or
by an kiinual Pr. mium.
2. Policies may be effected wrru or without the priv.lege of
withdrawing one-half of the Annual Payments. It with-
out this privilege, the rates are lower.
3. A Life Assurance may be effrcted on the life of another, on
Joint Lives or Survivorships.
4. Annuities, Immediate, Deferred. or Contingent, will be
granted, also Endowments for Children.
5. Laval and Military Men, not in active foreign service, as-
sure without extra charge, and allowed to go abroad with-
out forfeiture of Policy, on payment of an extra Premium,
according to climate.

In the event of the Assured (when
on
nits the Withdrawal System)
not rt quiring to continue the Polic,
, way
of surrender one-half the
annual payments will he returned by
purchase of his in crest
therein. By this m ans, apprehension of great
epeehuniary loss and
doubt as to the intrinsic transferable value of
u
moved. its cash vame being fixed and determined beforehandli be is
the
society at one-half the annual premiums plid thereon : a
vast
of s,ciety will thereby be adtnitted : and ever: indivi ual, ,schlaile3
steadily pursuin 4 out object—a provision f^ri his family at death—
will have, by the plan ot this Society, a door open to his savings,
which will never be closed against his w tuts or his use.
