THE COLONIAL LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY

Registered and Empowered under Ad of Parliament,

The COLONIAL COMPANY has been established for the pur-
pose of affording the benefits of Life Assurance to persons
resident in the Colonies or in India. Before the establishment
of the " Colonial," Life Assurance in the Colonies was almost
unknown, and where its protection was afforded the rates de-
manded were so exorbitant as to be almost a complete bar to
such transactions.

The Company commenced business in 1846, and the result
which has attended its operations fully bears out the anticipa-
tions of success which its founders entertained.

NO EXTRA CHARGE is made for residence in Canada; and
parties have the privilege of passing between Great Britain and
North America free of expense.
One of the GREAT ADVANTAGES offered by this Company
is the permission given to Assurers to pass from the most
healthy to the most unhealthy part of the Globe, without taking
out a New Policy, a second stamp by this arrangement being
rendered unnecessary, and the possibility of rejection following
upon a second Medical Examination avoided altogether—the
change in premium being the only difference.
Parties proceeding to the SOUTHERN STATES OF NORTH
AMERICA for the COTTON SEASON will find this Company a
most advantageous one for Assurance.—On returning to Eu-
rope the Assured will commence to pay the HOME RATE under
Premium
