M. Philip de Bosredon, Manager of the FrenchGeneralLife Insurance Company, having kindly furnished us with the printed reports of that company for a series of years, and Mr. George W. Kilford having sent us a similar series of reports of the FrenchNational, it appeared to us that a notice of these reports would be of great interest to the readers of theJournalin connection with the preceding paper. We have therefore drawn up the following account of the companies, with the assistance of Mr. J. J. W. Deuchar, of theStandardLife Assurance Company, to whom is due the whole credit of preparing the various statistical tables.—ED.J. I. A.
