The Australasian Insurance—and Banking Recordconcludesanarticleon the Non-forfeitable
System in thefollovi^ing terms: "Itis to thecreditoftheCALEDONIAN thatitshould be the
first to introduce this liberal featureintopractice in Great Britain. As the precursor of anew
and betterstate ofthings in the Insurance world there, it deserves, as we trust it will find, its
rewardin a largeaccession ofbusiness."

PREFATORY NOT
In publishing a work such as tliis for the first time, some allowance
ought to be made for errors and omissions. The plan adopted to collect
the names was considered to be the best to obtain a full and accurate
list, while special advertisements appeared in tlie local papers asking
all who Avere omitted, or who intended to cliange their address, to give
notice of such, and attention would be paid to them. Still, it must be
considered that this being the first arrangement, and although every
precaution has been used to make it as complete and perfect as possible,
and if in City Directories; where men are trained to the work, errors
do occur, it is hoped any appearing here will meet with forbearance.
Several complaints have been made at tlie time it has taken, but to those
acquainted with the nature of the work it will not appear too long.
I have to thank my Subscribers and Advertisers, without whose
assistance I would not have ventured on the undertaking.
