This Society, which w established in 1815, may be regarded,
so far as Scotland is ncerned, as the parent institution, hav-
ing been the first, d for many years ihe only Life Assurance
Establishment ' that part of the kingdom ; and, notwith-
standing that its local designation still remains unchanged, it
has now for a long time been extensively and favourably known
to all classes of the community both in England and Ireland."
Since the date of the Society's foundation, the subject of
Life Assurance has become much more generally understood,
and the public are betteracquainfed with, and more ready to
avail themselves of, the important benefits resulting from its
operation. It has accordingly followed as a natural conse-
quence, that numerous rival Institutions have arisen during
recent years, and others are daily springing up. The systems
pursued are of the most varied character, and the leading prin-
ciples of the different Offices, in many instances, of very dis-
similar natures. Amidst the great competition thence arising
for the favour of the public, and the conflicting claims put
forward to its confidence, a stronger proof that the real value
and true object of Life Assurance is now more fully appreciated
and understood, could scarcely be desired than the fact, that
the prosperity of the older Institutions of established reputa-
tion, so far from being diminished, has continued steadily to
increase. The purpose of a party entering into an Assurance
contract being essentially a matter of prudence or safety, and
not of speculation, it is natural to suppose that the character of
an office fo- stability and careful management, should in a
great majority of cases, form a prominent consideration in the
selection.

The pass history of the SCOTTISH WIDOWS' FUND and LIFE
ASSURANCE SOCIETY, since its establishment in 1815,1 ms been
one of great and uninterrupted success; and the results sub-
mitted in the last Annual Report, afford most gratifying evi-
dence of the undiminished favour and confidence of the com-
munity.

The total amount of Assurances effected since the commence-

meat of the Society, exceeds NINE MILLIONS STER-
LING.
There has been paid to the Representatives of deceased mem-
bers a total amount of somewhere about ONE MILLION
SEVEN HUNDRED THOUSAND POUNDS.
The average amount of Assurances effected during the last
thirteen years, exceeds HALF A MILLION ANNUALLY.
All information may be obtained on application at the Head
Office, or at any of the Society's Agencies.
