I beg to state that I have not been able to discover any incumbrance to the project. Mention that I am entitled to leave with hardly any means of livelihood for my family and myself, and so I will be grateful if you will be so good as to take this matter into consideration, and grant me a substantial pension.

With no friends to help me in my distress, I am unable to bring any influence to bear, and I trust that your opinion, after considering my case, will be in my favour.

I have served for 7 years under various Heads of Department, such as Mr. Marsh, Mr. Sibilliary, Mr. D. M. Lians – Mr. D. Immachy, Dr. Stewart, Mr. Fleming, Miss Frances Hamming, and Mr. Mordaunt Baines, without any complaint from them, and your favourable opinion about me will naturally be most gratifying.

I feel that there is a necessity for checks. I mention that the ability to perform my duty, which I have done to the best of my knowledge and ability, has been satisfactory. As regards the tune to perform the work, I consider that partly due to my zeal and partly due to the nature of the work, I have been able to carry out my duties to the satisfaction of my superiors.

I was on leave during the time when the work was being done, and I trust that under all the circumstances, a substantial pension may be granted to me on my retirement from the service, as my family and I are in want.

I have the honour to be, Sir, Your most obedient servant,
