100 38 & 39 Vict. Cap. 60, s. 28. shall be entitled to receive more than two hundred pounds by way of gross sum, together .with any bonuses or addi tions declared upon assurances not exceeding that amount, or (except as provided by section six of this Act) fifty pounds a year by way of annuity, from any one or more such societies; and any such society may require a member, or person claiming through a member, to make and sign a statutory declaration that the total amount to which such member or person is entitled from one or more such societies does not exceed the sums aforesaid; and any person know ingly making a false or fraudulent declaration in the matter shall be guilty of a misdemeanor (a). 28. Payments on death of children.—With respect to pay ments on the death of children under ten years of age, the following provisions shall have effect:— (1.) Limitation of payments.—No society [or branch] shall insure or pay on the death of a child under five years of age any sum of money which, added to any amount pay able on the death of such child by any other society [or branch], exceeds six pounds, or on the death of a child under ten years of age any sum of money which, added to any amount payable on the death of such child by any other society [or branch], exceeds ten pounds (h). (2.) Who may receive payments.—No society [or branch] shall pay any sum on the death of a child under ten years (a) This section is founded on 18 & 19 Vict. c. 63, ss. 9, 38; hut the limit of annuity is raised from £30 to £50. (5) The provisions in this section are in some respects more stringent than those of 21 & 22 Vict. c. 101, s. 2. The limits of assurance, however, are the same. The certificate of a registrar of deaths is substituted for the medical certificate, and more effectual provision is made against evasion of the Act. It is also .extended to industrial assurance companies, and, on the other hand, such companies are relieved from the operation of the (Gambling Act. It is to be observed that sect. 28 extends to un registered as well as registered societies, and has been so acted •upon in cases before the sheriffs of Forfar and Dundee. See Report of Assistant Registrar for Scotland for 1875, p. 35.
