ETIHIS Society, which confines it's bust
"a ness exclusively to assuring the lives
OF persons resident in the West Indies,
presents advantages such as no other AS
surance Company, Iabouring 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-
ent to create large surpluses, out of
which Reversionary Bonuses, averaging
2IIa per cent per annum upon the amount
assured have been distributed among the
Members Of the Society.
It's 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
as valuable as those ~inhabiting Europe,
and that they do not demand such exces
slve Premiums as are charged by every
toher Company.
The following abridged Table shows the
Premiums required to assure 500, for the
whole term, .upon a single life -
, 1873-12-27

Assurances Of every description on sin 50
gle lives are granted by the Society for
any sum from 500 Dollars to 10000 Dollars.
Premiums are received Quarterly, Half
yearly, or Yearly, at the option of the
Assured.
Assures wishing to discontinue the pay
ment of their Premiums, may either dis
pose 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 ara
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 qu|inquenniaIly, and
the surplus then existing is allotted to the
Members, after a sufficient sum has been
set aside for the purposes Of the Reserve
Fund. The next investigation and D ivi-
sion of Profits, will take place at the 3lss
December, 1875.
