signed an agreement in

which was

included the

clause No married man

will be enlisted and no

married quarter provided

until after promotion to

rank of Sergeant"?

That Clause

not

in

was

the agreement signed by

Constable Foord, but the

rule was

apparently made after..

A

arrival in the Colony.

3.

If the favour

were

granted to Foord, it could

only

be used as a

precedent

by those men who joined

before 1883, since those

who joined later deprive

themselves out of the

privilege; and therefore

unless the number of

such unmarried Constables

having joined before 1883,

is considerable, I cannot

see that there

be

any

serious objection

to waiving the rule in

favour of

Foord.

4. I should however, prefer

Buru
