PROS PECTUS.
The business of this Company will, in the first instance, be
confined to Fire and Lite Insurances in their various modifi-
cations; but power will he given to the Directors, with the con-
sent of the Shareholders, to extend it to Marine Insurances
also.
In announcing the plan of a new Insurance Company, in-
tended especially for the benefit of Manchester and its vicinity,
it is perhaps unnecessary for the promoters to explain that it
interest.
There be considered as an opposition to any local
There is only one company in Manchester which strictly
belongs to the district, and the business of that company is
entirely confined to Fire Insurance. As is well-known, how-
ever, owing to the enormous value of Mill or Warehouse Pro-
perty, the practice is for no one Insurace Company to venture
upon the risk of Insuring the entire value, and the result is
that the London, Scotch, and Provincial Offices, not connected
with Manchester, take a large proportion of the premiums paid
for Fire Insurances, and the whole of those paid for the Life
and Marine Insurances of the neighbourhood.
The advantages, moreover, derivable to a Commercial and
Manufacturing Town I:ke Manchester, from the establishment
of an Insurance Company, composed of an extensive Local
Proprietary mutually interested in its welfare and success, and
Managed by a Local Directory practically acquainted with the
wants and requirements of the neighbourhood, will be readily
understood and appreciated by the public.
It is only necessary to refer to the following Table to show
the success of Companies under Local Direction :
Paid. Present value.
Date. Office. s. d. s. d.
1824.... Manchester 10 0 0 ... 24 10 0
1836.... Liverpool & London 2 10 0
1845.... Royal Liverpool 2 0 0
Such being the case, the promoters confidently appeal to the
public in support of an office by the constitution of which the
liability of its members will be restricted to the amount of the
shares held by them ; while, on the other hand, a subscribed
capital of two millions sterling will be more than an ample
guarantee to the assured.

N.B.—At a meeting of the Provisional Directors it was una-
nimously resolved, that the capital should be altered to two
minions, in order to meet the:requirements of the public; and,
therefore, applications for shares may be made up to May lOth,
to JAMES KENNEDY, Esquire,
April, 1852. No. 2, Royal Exchange, Manchester.
