troops receives for his services a
capitation rate on the number of
Roman Catholic Soldiers in the
garrison,
which amounts altogether at present
to nearly One hundred and
fifty
pounds (£150) per annum. I... presume that, if Bishop Raimondi's
application is entertained at all, the
payment of a similar sum
by the Colonial Government for services of a Roman Catholic Chaplain at the Gaol, Civil Hospital, etc., would be deemed sufficient. I am informed that the average number
of Roman Catholics in the Civil Hospital and Gaol amounts to
about two hundred annually,
which nearly corresponds
with the average number of Roman Catholic soldiers in the Garrison.
13. It should, of course, be
borne in mind that, if the claims of the Roman Catholic Church in this respect are admitted, similar claims will be probably advanced
on behalf of the Presbyterians and
other Protestant Communions.
