HOME INSURANCE COMPANY.
Annual Election of Officers and the
Presidents Report.

The annual meeting of the stock
holders of the Home Insurance Com
pany was held at the Office of the com
pany yesterday morning at 10 O'Clock.
The election resulted in the re-instat-
ing of all the old officers, by unani-
nous vote. A dividend of per cent.
on the paid up capital was de-
clared.
THE PRESIDENTS REPORT,
was then read. 1t was as follows:
SALT LAKE CITY, October Is, 1885,
To the Stockholders of the Home Fire Insur-
ance Company of Utah:
GentLemen:-I submit herewith q state
ment showing the condition of the company
at the close of the second fiscal year.
From this it appears that the cash assets
amount to $125,3SS 81. or $25,3SS 81 more
than the cash capital stock. We have been
favored with an increased patronage, show
ing the wisdom of passing the dividend last
year.
Our total premium receipts were $11, 457. As,
compared with SIC, 241. 65 last year.
This year. as well as last. we received ap-
plications for larger sums than the Home"
cared to issue )licies for, but, adhering to
our plan OF last year, we haveissued policies
for moderate amounts only.
The Board of Directors have declared q
dividend payable November 5th, of per
cent. on the capital stock or 8 per cent.
on the paid up capital. and after pay
ing this dividend, our net assets will be
$l17i SSS 81, or $S,Sl7 40 in excess of our as
sets at the close of last year
Feeling assured that all will be gratified
at the increased business and the excellent
showing made, I remain,
Yours Respectfully,
HEBER J. GRANT,
President
