Extract

Policies of life assurance are of many kinds—subject to the payment of premiums in various ways, and to risks of different descriptions.

A policy has several values, according to the purposes to which it is applied, the necessities of the holder, and the intention of the purchaser.

The following pages are intended as a guide to those who, not having made the nature and uses of a policy a subject of study, may yet have occasion to form an estimate of its value for some special purpose.
