The Premiums for Insurance of Lives are upon an equally
moderate scale of charge.
A sufficient capital having been already subscribed to
enable the Directors to commence business, the office was
opened on the 25th March. It has been the object of the
Directors to restrict the allotment of shares as much as
possible to the agricultural classes, they being the parties for
whose interests the Institution has been established, they
have, therefore, resolved, in order to avoid the inconvenience
which has been found to arise from an unrestricted applica-
tion for shares, and to induce only thbse to apply who wish
to become bona fide proprietors, not to entertain any appli-
'cation unless made agreeable to the printed forms provided
for this purpose, the Directors reserving to themselves the
right to reject or comply with such application, either in
whole or in part.
PROPOSALS for INSURANCES may be forwarded to
the AGENTS in their respective Districts, or to the Office
in London.

W. SHAW, Managing Director.
