Incorporated by Royal Charter. Established 1831.

The leading principle of this Mutual Assurance Society Is, that the
whole Profits are divisible among the Policy Holders every three
years. In illustration of the eminent success which has attended the
Society, it may be stated that the additions made to Policies have
been at the rate of 2 per cent. per annum on the sum assured and on
the vested bonus.
Thus the holder of a Policy for 1,0001. effected on the let of March,
1832, will, if it become a claim during the present year, be entitled
to 1,2971.; or, if effected on or before the Ist March, 1833, to 1,2751.,
and so on as regards other policies.
The Accumulated Fund exceeds 260,0001., and the Annual Revenue
Is above 70,0001., the whole being in a course of steady and increas-
ing prosperity.
No other Life Assurance Institution whatever can warrantably
hold out greater advantages to parties Assuring than this Society does.
