A debtor and creditor account of the assurance fund is
appointed hereto with the valuation as at December 31st,
1866, and the surplus now Mown is of the most encourag-
ing 'character, and justifies the expectation that at the
division of profits at the end of 1871 the results will be
exceedingly favourable.
The Directors draw the especial attention of their new
connexions to the circumstance that 16 years since they
inaugurated a plan of weekly audit of accounts. This
system is still carried out by them with an undiminished
care and attention, and by its adoption they aro enabled
to control the operations of the Company in the most
efficient manner.

to £220,978 Os. 10d., after making allowance for all Poli-
cies lapsed or surrendered.

The claims paid during the year amount to £67,181 10s.
