Sambrooke , Esq . Itiehard Harman Lloyd , Esq . William Wybrow , Esq . Actuary and Secbktaby . —Charles Jellicoe , Esq . The business of the Company comprises Assurance on Lives and Survivorships , the Purchase of Life Interests , the Sale and Purchase of Contingent and Deferred Annuities , Loaus of Money on Mortgage ,, &c . Tliis Company was established in 1807 , is empowered by the Act of Parliament 53 Geo . III ., and is regulated by Deed enrolled in the High Court of Chancery . The Company was originally a strict Proprietary one . The Assured , on the participating scale , now participate quinquennially in four-fifths of t | je amount to be divided . The Directors have availed themselves of the more accurate information recently obtained as to tho rate of mortality nmong assured lives , and have modified the Tables originally constructed for the Company accordingly . Tho rates now charged arc lower than thone required by many of the Offices , and , as compared with them , a Bonus is in fact at once securod by ettecting an assurance with the Eagle Company . Thus the Premium required by one Office' in particular lor assurance of £ 1000 at the a ^ e of 20 , would secure , in the Eftglo Office , no Ichs than £ 1250 , —that is to say , a Policy for the tamo amount , with an immediato addition of 25 per cent , to the sum assured . To the present-time ( 1853 i the Assured have received from the Company , in satisfaction of their claimn , upwards of £ 1 , 400 , 000 . Tho amount at present assured is £ 3 , 000 , 000 nearly , and the income of tlie Company is about £ 130 , 000 . At the last Division of Surplus , about £ 120 , 000 was added to tho HimiH assured under Policies for tho whole term of Life . Tho lives assured aro permitted , in time of peace , and not lieing engaged in mining or gold digging , to reside , in any country , —or to paw liy sea ( not being noafuring pornoiiH b y profcHHion ) between any two parts of the same hemisphere—distant more than 33 ileprecH irom the Equator , without extra oharge .
