This Company, established by Act of Parliament, affords the
most perfect security, from an ample capital, and only re-
quires, when an Insurance is for the whole period of life one
half of the very moderate Premiums to be paid for the first five
years after the date of the Policy, the other half may remaine
subject to the payment of interest at 5 per cent. annually, to be
deducted at death, or may previously be paid off at convenience.
It obviously becomes easy for a person of very moderate
income to secure, by this arrangement, a provision for his
family ; and should he at any time after effecting the insurance
succeed to, or acquire, a fortune, he may relinquish his policy,
having only paid one half the premiums for the first five years,
instead of the whole, as in all other Companies.
Thus a man of 25 years old may, by an annual payment of
28/. I6s. 3d. for the first five years, and afterwards
the full premium, 57/. 12s. 6d. yearly, secure to his widow
and children at his death payment of no less than 3,0001., sub-
ject only to the deduction of 144/. Is. 3d., being the amount
of premium unpaid.
On the Ist of July, the Board of Directors added 2 per Cent.
per Annum as a Bonus to those assured upon the participating
plan from the dates of their policies, thus appropriating 20/.
a-year as an addition to every policy for 1,0001. The follow-
Table will show the amount of the bonus on policies since the
commencement of the Company in March, 1834 :

This Company holds out, in various other respects, great
inducements to the public. When such facilities are afforded,
it is clearly a moral duty in every parent who is not possessed
of a fortune, but of an income, however moderate, to insure
his life for a sum which may yield a comfortable provision for
his family.
