Provided that if at the date of any transfer from one service to another un officer received higher pensionable emolu. ments than at the date of final retirement it shall be lawful for the Secretary of State to direct that his service shall be treated as divided into independent parts by such date or dates of transfer, in which case, instead of his whole pensionable service, only that part which includes his service in the Colony shall be taken into account for the purpose of the above computation, and, if the officer did not finally retire at the end of the said part, his pensionable emoluments at the date of transfer ending that part shall be taken instead of those at the date of final retirement. If service in the Colony is included in more than one part, then each of such parts shall be treated separately.

Provided also that if the said officer has been employed in other public service in which pensions may be granted after less than ten years' service, for the period qualifying for pension in such service, and. before completing an aggregate service of ten years, retires in circumstances in which he is permitted by the Ordinance to retire on pension it shall be lawful to grant him a pension instead of a gratuity in respect of his service in the Colony.

Provided that, in the event of his final retirement taking place from the service of the Colony, and of his aggregate pensionable service extending a complete half year beyond a number of complete years, such gratuity may be increased by one-half of a month's pensionable emoluments.

19. Where an officer's service in a pen- sionable office in the Colony or in other public service has been immediately pre- ceded by a period of continuous non-pension- able employment in the Colony, or in other public service, or partly in the Colony and partly in other public service, such period
