I^HE peculiar and distinctive features of this Society consist — In allowing no Member,
when unable to continue his payments, to lose the benefit of the sums which he has
paid, and arrangement may be made to secure a Policy free from any future payments.
By appropriating one-tenth of the profits of the Society to a Fund for the purpose of
endowing Schools, in which the Holders of Policies for £300 and upwards will be allowed
to nominate Scholars, thereby securing a direct interest and privilege not to be found in
any other existing institution.
By making every Policy absolutely Indisputable- under any circumstances, thereby ren-
dering them negotiable instruments as security, and entailing no trouble or inconvenience
on the survivors.
By making every Policy payable to the holder by endorsement, by which
means the expense and trouble of an Assignment are avoided. By this means a Policy
may be negotiated with the same facility as a. Bill of Exchange^
