CLERICAL, MEDICAL, AND GENERAL
LIFE ASSURANCE SOCIETY.
REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS.
Presented at the Annual General Meeting, held at the Society's
Office, on Thursday, March 2d, 1848.
Having, at the Meeting held in January, 1847, presented to the
Proprietors and ♦ssured a very full account of the Society's affairs,
'your Directors have but little to communicate on the present oc-
casion.
It may, however, be satisfactory t• those now assembled to learn
•that, notwithstanding the increased and active competition arising
from the yearly establishment •f many new Life Assurance Oakes,
th• business of this Society still continues to advance.
In proof of this, it will be sufficient to state the following facts :

I. The irumber of Policies granted ea the lives of Clergymen,
• class of persons generally distinguished for longevity, has been
. greater during the year ending June 30th last (the period compre-
hended in this report) than in any one year since the commence-
went of the Society.
11. The Society's Income, which was 116,382/. in the year ending
June 30th, 1846, a tionnted to 122,9061. in the year ending June
30th, 1847.
• 111. The number of NEW POLICIES issued within the year has
been 513, and the amount assured thereby 287,079/. Being an
• increttite, both in the number of policit s and in the sum assured, over
those of any preceding year.
In conclusion, the Directors are happy to inform the Proprietors
that the Society has net in any degree suffered from the great mor-
• tality which has prevailed of late throughout th• kingdom, the
, elaims, both in the course of the year ending June 30, 1847, and also
Within the six months ending with December last, not having
equalled either in number or amount those of preceding years.
Tables of states and Forms of Proposal can be obtained of any of
. the Society's Agents, or by addressing a letter to

be of more Importance than the prou'rvation of the health
and of the physical capabilities of which every man should'
be possessed. It unfortunately happens that unhappy
victim of excessive indulgence and 'vicious habits, whether acquired
in early life or from the follies of advanced age, while suffering
from their invariable consequences, unwisely entertains a tear of a
plying to a qualified physician for relief. Shame and the dread so
• frequently, but erroneously entertained that these complaints are
. beyond the reach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking
for assistance where alone it can be procured. In acting thus, he
forgets that accurate discrimination. n ascertaining the causes of

guarantee for his professional experienee, which has reference almost
Solely to the treatment of these diseases.
