The directors also draw attention to the successful esta-

Association, under the auspices of the Briton. The direc-
tors believe that the establishment of a Fire Company, to
work in active co-operation with the Life, will tend much
to the advantage and profit of both institutions. it is
scarcely necessary to remark that the capital funds and
constitution of each office are quite separate and distinct.

Extracts from the ReplA of the Directors, presented at
the Actual General Meeting held on the 27th November,
1868:

KThe sum of £412,345 was proposed for Assurance, of
which £307,395 was completed at Premiums pro-
ducing £10,067 per Annum.
2. The amount paid under Claims by death was .£1.00,83,
being the smalleet since 1860, whilst the. expenses of
manag,mr.ut and all other outgoings wore even less
than fur many years past.
3. On the other hand, the Income was raised to £219,769,
notwithstanding that its increase was retarded by
abatements of premium which did not take effect in
the previous year, and by the cessation of interest on
the large sum paid as Bonus in 1867.
4. The Surplus income was very considerable. It
amounted to £93,152, a sum exceeding by more than
£B,OOO any previous Surplus during the forty-four
years of the Society's existence.
5. The Accumulated Fund was thereby increased to
£1,598,906.

society :
