Net amount Of accumulated premiums, s2l5 ,57l.
This company is organized on the purely mutual
principle and lis business is restricted by the char
ter to the insurance Of lives and granting snnuites
and endowments.
Ii commenced, without capt tai on the LIST Of Feb
ruary, l643. At the close ofits second year. (3lst
January, l645, it had issued 086 policies, and its
net accumulated premiums was s97 ,272. At the
termination of the third year. the 2lst January,
1876, the whole number OF policies issued was 1890
and its net accumulated premiums, after paying all
losses and expenses, was S2l557l; thus exhibiting
increase during the last year of DAT policies is
sued, and SllS, 2S5 Of accumulated funds, which is
rapidly augmenting by an annual income Of $3.50, :
900, growing out of original and renewed premiums
and interest on Investments.
This extraordinary success places the company
in strong position, and it now ranks among the
safest institutions in the country.
Poliey-holders participate In the whole Of the
profits, there being no proprietary interest or sub
scribed capital TO absorb any portion thereof An
extensive and prosperous business promises large
dividends the first division Of profits on the LIST
of February, lS4S, and persons now insuIing will
share in these profits If they survive that period.
The premiums are paid annually, and low
as any American company, and lower than the
English, with participation in the profits Policy
holders are secured by investments in bonds and
mortgages on real estate In tne city OF New YORK
and Brooklyn, worth double the amount loaned
thereon and in stocks Of the State and city of New
York.
The transactions of this company are on the
cash principle-consequenuy the survivors of par
ties insuring with il will not be subjected to the
heavy drawback Of accumulated premium notes;
reducing the benefit of the assurance to small pit
lance.
