follow onthe voyage from the army they
would probably never return, And this
result Is secured to rs merely by the war
fever, even without thewar. Next to the
increase In immigration will be demand

CHIEF OFFICE:

gUHIS Society, which confines its bust
az ness exclusively to assuring the lives
Of persons resident in the West Indies,
presents advantages such as no other As
surance Company, labouring 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-
cient 10 create large SURPRISES, out of
which ReverSionary Bonuses, averaging
% per cent per annum upon the amour
assured have been distributed among Il e
Members of the Society.
Its career, during a period of 80 years,
has clearly demonstrated the fact that the
lives of persons residing in this part of
the world, are, when carefully selected,
almost rs valuable as those inhablting
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,
for the whole term, upon a single life =
, 1870-08-23

Assurances of every description on SIN
gle lives are granted by the Society for
any sum from 5O0Dollarst to 10000 Dollars.
Premiums are received Quarterly, Half
yearly, or Yearly, OF the option Of the
Assured.
Assurers wishing to discontinue the
payment of their Premiums, may either
dispose of their Policies to the Society
upon equitable terms, or obtain a free
Policy for a reduced amount.
Loans are granted to Members on the
Security of their Policies.
All claims occurring by death are
promptly met within 3 months after salts
factory proof Of such death has been re-
ceived by the Society.
Strict Investigations into the position
of the Society are made quinquenniaIly,
and the surplus then existing is allotted to
the Members, after q sufficient sum has
been set aside for the purposes of the
Reserve Fund. The next investigation
and Division of Profits, will take place at
the 31st December, 1870.
The Society has Agencies in nearly all
of the British West India Islands.
