The CARLISLE TABLE of the EXPECTATION of LIFE, (which is in general use in England, and has been adopted by some of the Life Insurance Companies in this Country,) differs from the Table below in the first 41 years of lifebut between the ages of 44 and 92 the variation, if any, is trifling. Should the widow and her children, or other heirs, deem it expedient to sell the estate entire, it can be ascertained by the following Tables to what proportion of the proceeds the widow will be entitled. The following Table gives the Expectation of Life, according to Dr. Wigglesworth's The following Table shows the value of an Annuity of One Dollar from 1 to 35 Years, at Five per cent. per annum, and, with the Table above, will enable any person to estimate the value of a Widow's Dower. 1 .9523 8 6,4632 10.3796 22 13,1630 29 15.1410 10,8377 23 13.4880 30 15.3724 9.3935 20 Rule, Suppose that a widow 70 years old has an interest in an estate yielding $10 annually,-what is her present interest, or dower) worth? By the first table her expectation of life is 10 years. The second table shows that the value of $1 for 10 years is worth $7.7217, which amount multiplied by [X]10 equals [=]$ 77,21, the value of the widow's dower for 10 years. Or, what is the value of a salary or annuity of $100 a year for 5 years? Multiply the tabular number opposite 5 years by the given annuity, as follows: 4.3294 X 100 = $432 94.-the value of an annuity of $100 for 5 years. If 6 per cent, is required add one sixth to the amount, and so on, PRODUCE AND MERCHANDISE READY RECKONERS.
