Gash Surplus in 1885, over £242,000 (iasi Mnanunoa). THE Batea of Premium new in levee in thia Office are lower than those charged to participating Policyholders by any other Office doing business in the Aostralasiaa Colonies. It is nevertheless anticipated that, owing to eheap management and light mortality, very handsome bonuses will become payable to Policyholders insuring under existing rates.

Of this amount £160,000 was divided, sad ths balance carried to reserve.
