SCOTTISH WIDOWS' FUND and LIFE
ASSURANCE SOCIETY.

Founded A.D. 1813.
On the Principle of Mutual Contribution.
♦ Tills Institution, notwithstanding its local name, has long been fa-
„,;)tirab, known to all classes in Great Britain and Ireland. It is the
test and most successful Life Assurance Office in Scotland ; and,
Zh the exception of the London Equitable, it is believed. to be the
'lcat ex`—',..tsive upon the mutual assurance principle of any in the
ectintry.
The affairs of the Society's are carefully investigated at the end of
cach
Period of seven years, and it is provided by the articles of
constitution that at .least one-third of the ascertained surplus or
fpro shall be reserved as a Guarantee Fund. This fund (as well as
tli the other funds of the Society) belongs solely to the members
r. secures the stability of the Institution, and prevents the profits
_..otrk being diverted, as must be the case in all proprietary offices,
I,rilcni the individual benefit of the assured to increase the dividends of
e stockholders.
~.At the last septennial period of investigation (viz., 31st December,
as'°ls), it wag ascertained that the Surplus Fund amounted to upwards
ide4,ooo/., frosts 'which the Directors were enabled, after setting
_ upwards of 204,000/. as a Guarantee Fund, to declare and
provide for the following additions
An addition at the rate of Two per Cent. per Annum for the
Period frost 31st December, 1838, on the accumulated amount of the
Original suing assured, and the previously declared additions ; being,
21 the case•of the early insurances, upwards of THREE PER CENT.
PER ANNUM of BONUS on the original Sums Insured. And in
Order to provide for the case of such parties as might die before
31st December, 1852, the period of the next investigation and decla-
ration of SUrplus, there was provided farther,
IL An addition at the rate of Two per Cent. per Annum on the
accumulated amount cf the original Assurances, and previously de-
clared additions, for each Premium paid after 31st December, 1845,
provided the party had at his death been insured five years. Thus
!n the case of a party insured in the early years of the Society's ex-
!!tence, dying after payment of the premium for the year 1852,
the addition for the seven years from 31st December, 1845, to 31st
-December, 1852, would be upwards of 2:5 per cent., or at the rate of
upwards of THREE AND A HALF PEE CENT. PER ANNUM
Or BONUS on the original Sum Insured.
The proportion of the profit allocated to each Member may be
applied in any of the following ways, viz. :
By additions to the original sum insured;
By an immediate pay ment of its value in money ; or,
By an equivalent deduction from the future Annual Contributions
payable under the Policy.
The effect of the additions made to the Policies may be judged of
from the fact, that in the case of the Original Members of the Society,
there will be paid, under each 1,0001. insured, in the event of death,
after payment of the Premium, in the year
thus showing a on the
1848 .. 1917 19 101 Bonus-equal to per cent. / original Sum
upwards of insured.

1840 .. 1990 7 5 II MI
1852 ••2062 14 11 t,
To the Representatives of the Original Member, whomay die
_lO the year 1852, after payment of the Premium applicable to that
.year, there will thus be paid MOMS THAN DOUBLE TUE AMOUNT OF
VRII OB.IGINAL INsuhaNcn.
ZThe members who joined the Society at later periods will, in like
anner, derive important benefits, and the Directors feel confident
eat the more the principles of the Society are considered and un-
!lrstood, the more satisfied will the members be, not only that they
!lave connected themselves wi-.11 a sate and flourishing institution,
ill.cet that whilst benefits so great are coufetrred upon those who have
li3,‘ n long Connected with it, the interests of the later members are
".110 Way overlooked.
