In a few months he would have served sufficient time by the superannuation rate, in event of being unfit for further service, to entitle him to submit a claim for a pension of £83 per annum.
The earnest desire and appeal of the widow is that she may have the means to defray the passage of herself and child to England, and that a small pension, being one sixth of her late husband's salary, may be granted, to place them above the chance of that want, which otherwise appears inevitable; she has no friends in this land able to assist her, and in England able to support her. In fact, the aged parents of both her late husband and herself have been receiving a partial support from the deceased.
I deem it incumbent upon me to state that the late Inspector Smithers had been nearly ten years under my command, viz: Six years in the London Police and nearly four years in the Police of this Colony, and that I have found him to be a most conscientious officer, in the discharge of his duties, and one who has been more useful to this Colony in carrying out the social...
