The Phoenix Fire Office, formed in 1782 principally to cover risks inthe sugar trade, was absorbed by the Sun Alliance at around about its200th birthday. It was a respectable and respected old office.

Recently, a local solicitor was having a bit of a spring-clean in hisoffices, which was perhaps not before time, as will be seen. He cameacross a copy of the Phoenix Fire Office 'Instructions to Agents', dated1894, and was kind enough to present it to me, knowing of my interest insuch antiques.
