MANAGING DlRECTOR—Archibald Murdoch Burrell, Esq.
SECRETARY—James Murdoch, Esq.
The barony and estate of Islay, comprising the island of Islay
and small adjacent islands is in the same latitude as Edinburgh and
Glasgow, and is otie of the richest and most productive properties in
the west of Scotland. It contains about 140,000 acres, of which
34,000 are arable, the rest being luxuriant pasture.
The present rental of this magnificent property amounts at present
to 20,0001.; but a Government grant of 30,0001. is now being ex-
pended in drainage an! imwovements. The rents are periodically
and legitimately increased as the leases fall in, and It is evident that
such a property must, under improved agriculture, afford a much
larger return. The purchase, it is expected, will be effected for
about 500,0001., and it is proposed to raise a capital for this purpose,
(tad contingent expenses, of 600,0001., In 12,000 301. shares, each
shareholder to nominate a life, and the whole body of nominees to
be insured out of the rental, so as to secure the repayment of his
subscription to every shareholder whose nominee lapses. The
remainder of the accumulated rental is to be divided every ten years
amongst the surviving shareholders, the last survivor to inherit the
estate. On the basis of 12,000 policies, in respect of the 12,000
nominees, it is further contemplated to ingraft, the general business
Va life assurance company, so as to secure an annual die idend of
profits.
Thus it will be seen that every person taking a share in the Ton-
tine, will, under any circumstances, receive bask the amount of his
Investment out of the assurance fund, and will also, IT way of in-
terest on his shares, receive an annual dividend out of the profits of
the general life assurance department (and the basis and guarantee
indicated cannot fall to make this branch most extensive and :ucra-
tive) ; he will, moreover, participate, every ten years Ws nominee
survives, in the accumulated and constantly improving rental; and„
in the ev,tit of his,nominee being the last survivor, will become
the absolute owner, In fee simple, of the entire estate. It Is also
to be observed that, as the nominees diminish in number, the
marketable value of the }shares will year after year be greatly en-
hanced.

The principles of the proposed Tontine have been maturely con-
sidered by F. G. P. Neison, Esq , the eminent actuary of the Me-
dical and Invalid Assurance Company, and received his entire ap-
probation.
The estrte is to be vested in three trustees, resident In Scotland.
The affairs of the Socieiy shall be conducted by a board of•seven
directors in Scotland, communicating with a board of correspondence
in Lyndon. Two general meetings shall be he'd in Scotland hi the
months of June and December.

The preliminary deposit to be ss. per share (being the maximum
allowed under the Registration Act), and a call of 11. per share shall
be made on cmplete registration. The remainder to be called up
by such instalments as may be found necessary to meet the payment
of the purchase money.
