124 INTRODUCTION. society whose rules were certified before 23rd July, 1855, a militiaman may be required to pay an extra "contribution during the time he shall be ■serving out of the United Kingdom, or his claim on the society may be suspended, if the rules con tain a clause against the enrolment or service of any member in the militia. 43. Although a member may, unless the rules of his society provide to the contrary, belong to any number of societies, he cannot receive in the aggregate an assurance of more than £200, or an annuity of more than £50 from such societies collectively, and must, before receiving any such benefit, make a declaration to the effect that the total value of any benefit accruing to him does not exceed the limited amount. 44. With respect to payments on the death of children, not more than £6 («) can be insured, cither in one or more societies, on the death of a child under five years of age, nor more than £10 under ten years of age. To provide for the en forcement of this restriction, certificates of the death of children, obtained for the purpose of claiming money from a burial society, are to be specially indorsed, and a medical certificate or other (a) In the House of Lords the limit of assurance on a child under three years of age was reduced to £3, on the motion of Lord Aberdare, but this amendment was dis agreed with by the House of Commons. The object desired of restricting the amount insured to the actual cost 'of burial would, we think, have been better attained if the amend ment had been adopted. On this point some valuable information was collected by the Chief Registrar in his Report for 1875, pp. 20-25.
