which Reversionary Bonuses, averaging
% per cent per annum upon the mount
assured have been distributed among the
Members of the Society.
Its career, during a period of 81 years,
has clearly demonstrated the fact that the
lives of persons residing in this part of
the world, are, when carefully selected,
almost as valuable as those inhabiting
Europe, and that they do not demand
such excessive Premiums as are charged
by every other Company.

ting the surplus earnings, and repre-
senting the road as losing money, while
it was in a most fourishing con-
dition, all for the purpose of buying
