GOVERNMENT HOUSE.

23rd July, 1914.
Sir,
78 with reference to my despatch No.165 of the
73
13th May, 1913, I have the honour to inform you that Mr.
Gutierrez, 1st Grade Clerk in the Post Office, has, since
Mr. Savage departed on leave on the 14th May, 1913, until
that officer retired on the 13th February, 1914, performed
the duties of Superintendent of Mails in the Post Office
in addition to his own duties.
2.
During the whole of this period Mr.Gutierrez'
hours of duty were from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. and he performed
his duties in a most thorough and painstaking manner. He
is, therefore, in my opinion deserving of special con-
sideration and I recommend that he be granted a bonus of
$480 or just over $50 a month.
3.
Mr. Gutierrez has continued since Mr.
Savage'a retirement to act as Superintendent of Mails as
Mr. Hynes the officer selected for the post is absent on
long leave. I propose to recommend Mr. Gutierrez for a
similar bonus when Mr. Rynes returns and takes up his
appointment.
