officer has served, for other man has served his last couple of years, we have made the employer bear the whole, but there is, however, a distinction where a man has been promoted out of a tropical Colony to a temperate one.
When still in good health, the cashier employer has been made to bear the whole of the subordinate's pension, for 10 years' service; and as we have already remarked as regards leave, "I do not think, if left in the Colony, he should be allowed more favourable terms as regards pension than if promoted to another Colony."
At the same time, I should not like to appear to say that if the officer accepted this appointment, he should retain no claim to pension at all, reckoning his service as transferred to another Colony. I do not myself see clearly why Hongkong should be under a lesser liability because his later service has not to be pensionable than if it were pensionable.
But I do not know that there has ever been a case of an Inter Colonial officer who has had over 10 years' continuous service in all, but less than ten years in any one Colony or Colonies.
The inter colonial schemes of 1869 & 1870 appear to me to be contradictory on this point to the memo of 1873 as to Officers transferred from Imperial to Colonial service; and I should not like to have to consider the point until a case actually occurs.
I would answer this despatch by pointing out Mr. Marsh's inaccuracies, by observing that if he accepted the appointment at Shanghai, he could have no claim to any larger pension eventually from Hongkong Revenues than if he were now transferred to another Colonial post, and also by taking exception to the proposal to grant him leave, as that is not my province.
