house, London.
This Company, established by Act. of Parliament, affords the
host perfect security, from an ample capital, and only requires,
'then an Insurance is for the whale period of life, ono half of the
ler"- moderate Premiums to be paid for the first five years after the
gate of the Polley, the ether half may remain, subject to the pay-
yeezt of interest at 5 per cent, annually, to be deducted at death, or
?11:4Y previously be paid off at convenience. It obviously becomes
t'alY for a person of very moderate income to secure, by this ar-
,?_lrement, a provision for his family ; and should he at any time
r effecting the insurance succeed to, or acquire., a fortune., he
iolaY relinquish his policy, having only paid one half the premiums
t,the first fn years, instead of the whole, as in all other Com-
Plesiles. Thus a man of 25 years old may, by an annual payment of
dr • 16s. 341. for the first five years, secure to his widow and eh&
e, at his Oath payment of no less than 3,0001., subject only to
v_ol
Ldeduction of 1441. Is. 3d., being the amount of premium un-
aid- This Company holds out, in various other respects, great
regiments to the public. When such facilities are afforded, it is
Ply a moral duty in every parent who is not possessed of a for-
but of an income, however moderate, to insure his life for a
"1 Which may yield a comfortable provision for his family.
