Extract

In the course of an investigation I have lately made, into the rate of mortality that has prevailed among the female lives insured in the Scottish Equitable Life Assurance Society, I have tried various methods of arranging the facts furnisht by the books of the office; and I think it may be useful to persons engaged in similar investigations, if I describe these methods, and state the conclusions at which I have arrived as to the best course of procedure.
