CALEDONIAN FIRE & LIFE INSURANCE OFFICE.
Iby
THE CALEDONIAN""poratd e
lISRU"R"AiNCICiageCrOMPANY was
1 established in 1805, and enjoys a very considerable share of
public patronage in Scotland and Ireland.
The best criterion of the Company's success is, the value of
the Shares-100 per cent, premium.
The Caledonian is a Proprietary Company, consisting of nu-
merous persons of known character and respectability. A large
fund is always in readiness to pay losses. The Shareholders are
bound to the full extent of their fortunes, as well by the special
provisions of their deed of settlement, as by the common law, to
make good the engagements of the Companyls Policies, and there
is not any Office in the United Kingdom which stands upon a
sounder basis of responsibility. In some of the Insurance
Offices the Proprietors are not bound beyond the extent of their
subscriptions; and in others, which divide the profits with in-
surers, persons insuring with them are liable to be called on
LIFE DEPARTMENT,
fur payment of lo
iNl,sislels.
E
The Caledonian offers all the advantages of a mutual Insurance
Society, wi:hout the risk,—Five-sixths of the Profits being ap-
portioned to the Policy holders; and the subscribed and accu-
mulate(' Capital of the Company being liable for the claims
arising from Life Policies.
The Rates for Older Lives are lower than those of any other
Office.

N.B.—This Office bas not contested one demand against it
n a court of law, though it has settled above 1300 claims.
