The case of A. B. shews the simple application of the 1st and 2nd Rules, in Colonies which simply follow the Imperial Rules.

That of C. D. shews the application of Rule 6 in reducing the rate of salary to the average of 10 years (here to £880.) If in these two cases the first employing Colony does not grant any Retiring Pension, then, under the 4th Rule, the Pension of A. B. (for twenty years' service) will be reduced to £466 13s. 4d., and that of C. D. (for four years' service) to £93 6s. 8d.

Again, if in these cases the last employing Colony be Ceylon or Hongkong, in which Officers of ten years' standing are allowed an addition of 5 years to their actual service in calculating their Pensions, then, under the 5th Rule, A. B. (having served more than ten years) would receive an addition to his Pension of ( x £1,000=) £83 6s. 8d.; but C. D., having served only 4 years, would receive no such bonus.

The case of E. F. illustrates the 3rd Rule.

The case of G. H. shews the effect of the 4th and 7th Rules on an Officer who has served in a Colony where no Retiring | Pension is allowed.
