is to be supposed to attach for the benefit of a wife of
exactly the same age as the late wife would have been,
and the pension will continue at that amount until such
member's official income (and his consequent contribution )
is either increased or decreased . If a further increment
of $ 200 official income be made when such member is
aged 40, and his late wife would have been aged 30,
then the additional amount of supposed pension would be
found by Rule 9 B (6) thus:
$8 x 2.295 = $ 18.4 = wife's supposed further pension.
Should such member re -marry, the amount to be used as a
basis for estimating the commencing pension to which the second
wife would be entitled would be either :
$237.65, if no augmentation had been made to the official
income';
$256 :05, if an augmentation of $200 had been made to the
official income at age 40, as above.
Note : If there have been more than one wife, care must be taken to
use always the age of the last wife.

article 9 bereof, and to remain stationary at that amount, unless
and until such member's official income be increased or decreased .

time of the husband's second marriage ; multiply the last product

ages of the husband and his second wife at the time of their
marriage. The final product will give the commencing annual
pension to which the second wife will be entitled on her husband's
death , in respect of his official income at the time of their marriage ;

to which the first wife if alive would have been entitled
