accumulation of the Premiums since that date (after providing
for emerged Claims, &c.) has produced a

CAPITAL OF TWO MILLIONS TWO I RED AND
FOUR THOUSAND PO NDS.

Notwithstanding the risk necessa ' atterding the invest-
ment of money to so large an exte , the Society has not as yet
sustained any loss by bad debt , and the whole Capital is at
present invested in securitie unquestionable safety.
An investigation into t affaira of the Society takes place
every seven years, whe e WHOLE PROFITS, AS THEN AS-
CERTAINED, ARE AP lED FOR BEHOOF OF THE MEMBERS,
who are the only p es in any way interested in the Society's
funds. The foll ng Table will show the effect of the addi-
tions already de to Policies of this Society :
