Society was held on the 10th of April last, when a hiOly satisfac-
tory REPORT was laid before the Proprietors and Policy Holders,
and unanimously adopted..
The Public will see the advantage of selecting, in so important a
matter as Life Assurance, a well-established office, which, from its
continued prosperity, and its large additions to policies, offers the
greatest inducement to Assurers, combined with the undoubted se-
curity of a numerous and wealthy proprietary.
