In the event of the Assured (when on the Withdrawal System)
not requiring to continue the Pollee, on its surrender one-half the
annual payments will be returned by way of purchase of his interest
therein. By this means, apprehension of great pecuniary loss and
doubt as to the intrinsic transferable value of each Policy is re-
moved. its cash va'ue being fixed and determined beforehand by the
Society at one-half the annual premiums paid thereon a vast class
of society will thereby be admitted ; and every indivi :nal, while
steadily pursuing one object—a provision fir his family at death—
will have, by the plan of this Society, a door open to his savings,
which will never be closed against his wants or his use.
