Hongkong,
and Mr. Carter, like other Officers, was
course liable to retirement on abolition of offibe
the Regulations allow an addition of years to pet-
sion in such cases, and this has been duly
granted.
In the exceptional circumstances I think he
should have a copy of this desp., with the cert.
of service in orig. In sending it, say that the
S. of S. cannot question further the
propriety of his retirement, and refer to letter
of. Oct. on 321F7,
The 1.Afr. and Higer Depts. and the C.A.
should see these papers.
