EIIHIS Society, which confines it's bust
u ness exclusively to assuring the lives
of persons resident in the West Indies,
presents advantages such as no other AS
surance Company, labouriug in the same
field, can offer. It's scale of Premiums,
although considerably lower than that of
any other Company, has nevertheless been
found quite adequate to provide for the
risk of life in the West Indies, and sufi-
Gent to create large surpluses, out of
which ReverSionary Bonuses, averaging
p per cent per annum upon the amount
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 inhahiting
Europe, and that they do not demand
such excessive Premiums as are charged
by every other Company.
The following abridged Table shows
the Premiums required TO assure 500,

Tor the start, great excitement was manifested
IN the vicinity of the grand stand at the appear

Both crews were in splendid condition. AT

The Yale men were slower, and their oars
