Council, and then to submit it to Your Lordship accompanied by the usual particulars required by the Colonial Regulations in all cases of the grant of Pension, and a statement of the reasons which led the Council to concur with me in a reduction of the Pension by 1/8th.

As the Certificates required by the Colonial Regulations were transmitted to your Lordship in my Despatch of the 6th of July 1837, it is very possible that on their arrival the case of Mr. Jarman may have been similarly disposed of. Nevertheless, I enclose a Copy of the Minutes of the Executive Council of the 10th of May as bearing on the subject and explaining that intemperance was the cause of Mr. Jarman's resignation, which indeed was sent in with a view to save himself from dismissal.

I have the honour to be, My Lord, Your Lordship's most obedient humble Servant,

Robert Montgomery Martin
Governor
