that married quarters
will not be provided
a number of
for
A
Governor
The Police until
after promotion to the
rank of
Serjeant,
& I am not aware
that there is any rule specifically governing the question of providing passages for the wives of Policemen
I request you
Consider whether
it ought not
to be reasonable to
allow a Policeman,
who marries while on leave after at least five years service, and
may therefore reasonably expect promotion in due course to the rank of Serjeant, to have free passage back to the Colony for his wife,
as otherwise such a man may be practically forced to remain unmarried till his second period of leave five years later
