The most rational motives to -Life Assurance are found in
the plan adopted by this Society ; viz. joined to a secure
Provision at death for inheritors of the Assured, the Society
affords succour to the Assured himself (proportioned to pre-
•'r4 payments) in the event of unforeseen reverses.

lng from a division amongst the assured of tiv,whelp.of- the
Profits, and that security and freedom from responsibi-
tYt which Proprietary Companies can alone afford, are corn-
yl,ned bv the constitution of the London, Edinburgh, and
Dublin Life Assurance Company, which is the only guaranteed
foal Society. The rates of premium are somewhat lower
than 4 in most o! the mutual offices, and for the non-participating,
and for those who effect assurances for temporary purposes, or
debtor and creditor transactions, Tables of Premium have been
rPared, by which a less immediate payment is required than
Y,.‘any other plan.
