The System adopted by this Corporation combines the Prin-
ciple of Mutual Assurance with the security of a large Sub-
scribed Capital and the support of an influential body of Pro-
prietors.
In order to meet the views of all classes of Insurers, poli-
cies are likewise granted on the following plan, viz.:—When
au insurance is for the whole term of life, one-half of the
premium is only required to be paid for the first five years, the
other half may remain unpaid, subject to the charge of interest
of 5 per cent, per annum, to be deducted at death, or may be
paid off, at the option of the parties. Tables have also been
calculated, making the sum insured payable on the party at-
taining the age of Sixty, or at Death, if it occur sooner.
The Premiums are moderately rated at all ages, and are so
modified by ascending and descending scales and otherwise, as
to suit the object of every Insurer at the least immed ate out-
lay, whether to secure a Debt, provide for his Family, or to
convert Income into Capital for his own use.
Prospectuses, Tables of Rates, and every information, may be
had on application to Messrs. B. and M. Boyd, No. 4, New
dank-buildings, Louden.
