ANDREW STEPHENSON DALGLISH, Esq., Chairman of
the Board of Directors, in the Chair.
The Manager read a Report by the Directors, giving a state-
ment of the Company's affairs as at 20th January, 1533, hp
which it appeared that _ .
The new Assurances for the past year amounted to 190,960
The Premiums thereon excee led 5,500
The Annual Revenue from Premiums alone is 41,200
The Invested Funds exceed 240,000

The Sums Assured by the Company amount to ' 1,250,000
A Bonus addition for The past year, of One-and-a-Half per
Cent., was declared on all sums assured by policies opened on
the participation plan, in addition to previous bonuses.
The following extract from the Report shows the additional
valuable privileges now conferred on the holders of this Com-
pany's Policies:
" The Assured (if they be not seafaring persons) are now
entitled to pass from one part of the world to another, and to
land at any pert which may be entered during the prosecution
of the voyage, without previous communication with the Com-
pany, and without payment of any extra premium."
There is thus no restriction whatever on Foreign Travel. For
Foreign Residence, the rates (where extra premium is still
exigible) have been greatly reduced; and the Assured are now
allowed to reside in the following places, without payment of
any extra premium at all.
NORTH AMERICA, including the British Possessions and
United States east of 100 deg. of west longitude, excepting as
regards the more Southern States during the period between
Ist July and Ist November; MADEIRA, AUSTRALIA, NEW
ZEALAND, VAN DIEMEN'S LAND, CAPE OF GOOD
HOPE, and PORT NATAL, (excluding such districts as may
be the seat of war;) BUENOS AYRES; all Places from Buenos
Ayres southward to Cape Horn, and from thence as far north
as Arica, on the west coast of S3utli America.
In addition to withdrawal of restrictions as above, the Direc-
tors have lately conferred other advantages of a similar nature ;
and thus all who henceforth open Policies with the Company
will have the following valuable privileges, and, as far as prac-•
ticable, the same privileges will be extended to existing Policies :
" I. UNRESTRICTED LIBERTY from the outset, to travel
to any part of the World, without payment of extra Pre-
mium.
" 11. UNRESTRICTED LIBERTY from the outset to re-
side in many places abroad, as specified above, without
payment of extra Premium.
" HI. AT THE END OF FIVE YEARS from the date of a
Policy, liberty to reside in any quarter of the World
without .payment of extra premium on the Assured,show-
ing, at taking out the Policy, that they have no prospect
then of going abroad.
" IV. AT THE END OF FIVE YEARS from their date, the
Company's Policies are indisputable on any ground what-
ever, so that the Policy will not be vitiated by any error
• or misstatement in the declaration by the Assured; and
the sum in the Policy will be paid without reference to
the place where, or the circumstances under which, the
Assured may have died.
