In proof of the public confidence at home in the . principles and conduct of the Norwich Union Fire Office, its Business has steadily INCREASED to ONE HUNDRED MILLIONS Sterling. £100,0.00,000. The LOWEST RATES only are charged. This Office is distinguished for its liberality and promptness in the settlement of claims, £2,008,116 having been paid to insurers for losses by fire. BANK CREDIT being established in New Zealand, as also a large reserve fund in the Bank in cash, Losses will be paid here promptly, "^The Society's Agents can accept, any. insurances, and fix the limits and the premiums without having first to consult Directors.

The Agent in announcing that he continues to receive orders for Assurances,- both on Life and every description of-property, begs to draw attention to the vast resources of the Company, and the standing which it takes among the large Insurance Establish ments of the British E.npire. Unaided by amalgama tion with any other Company its success, with one exception, is unprecedented in the history of In surance Societies, and enables it to rank witli the most eligible oflices-now in existence with respect to the advantages offered to the public. IN THE FIRE BRANCH The rates of premium are equally low with those of any Company doing business in the Colony, and the Company will ever distinguish itself by promptness and liberality in the settlement of losses. THE LIFE BRANCH Offers the Guarantee of an ample Capital, together with its accumulated funds, exemption of the Assured from liability of partnership to which Policy-holders in Mutual Offices are subject, Moderate Piemiums, Division of Profits every live years, three-fourths of which are appropriated to participating Policies.
