CHARTER PERPETUAL
The By-Laws of this Company, and the
regulations governing1 insurance have, re
cently been very materially changed, pla
cing it upon a bisis equal to that of any
Fire Insurance Company in the S'.ate.
Important among these changes are the
following, via :
Policies, instead of being perpetual, are
issued fr five years.
All property is classified and tiie rate of
premium is fixed according to the risk of
the properly.
Premium noies are taken, and all as-ses.-menfs
are made on the notes.
Property is insured for nt more than
two thirds of its actuil value, and th!
full o mount of insurance paid in ca6eof los
provMed the lo.-s be eq;ua to the amount of
insurance.
'Annual assessments' only are made, cx
rept in enses of he.ivy !o.-s. and where a
special assessment is nece.-siry.
The Company is therefore prepared to in
sure property upon terms much more desira
ble tlun under the old syxtem.
Applications may be made to anj' of the
Managers, Surveyors, or Secietary.
