I have the honour to submit the following
In June 1907 I offerred
matter for your consideration.
the appointment of Aide de Camp to myself, as Governor of
Hongkong, to Captain P.H.M.Taylor, 32nd.Lancers, Indian Army,
and with the sanction of the Indian Government he accept-
ed it and was seconded as from 19.6.07.
He was aware that he would still be liable for his con-
tributions to the Indian Military Service Family Pension
Fund and for his subscriptions to his Regimental Mess Fund.
These he has continued to pay and they have amounted to an
average sum of £25 per annum.
His salary as Aide de Camp is £300 per annum, with no allow-
ances except a conveyance allowance which is fully expend-
ed for the purpose it is granted.
Though irrelevant to the matter at issue I may mention
that he contributes a sum of £5 per mensem to the support
of a relative, leaving him an available nett balance for
his own purposes of £215 per annum.

pension for the period 19th.June 1907 to 30th.September
1909.
