THE CHISHOLM , Chairman . 3 RICHARD HARTLEY KENNEDY , Es * j ., Alderman , Deputy-Chairman . This Society is established on the tried and approved principle of Mutual Assurance . The funds are accumulated for the exclusive benefit of the Policy-holders , under their own immediate superintendence and control . The Profits ar-e divided annually , and applied In reduction of the current Premiums . Policy holders participate in Profits after payment of five annual Premiums . The Annual General Sleeting of this Society was held on the 30 th May , 1855 , when a Report of the fcusiness for the last year was presented , exhibiting a statement of most satisfactory progress . It appeared that during the two last years , 1853 and 1854 , between 800 arid 900 new Assurances had been eflRjcted , producing an increase of Premium income amounting to £ 14 , 000 per annum . It also appeared that , notwithstanding the extraordinary mortality-which prevailed during the last year , in consequence of the visitation of the cholera it had not been found necessary to reduce , in the slightest , the allowance of 31 § per cent , previously awarded to the Policy-holders . ~ Credit is allowed for half the Annual Premiums for the fixst five years .
