any claim in his then appointment to half pay or pension at a higher rate, then only would it be necessary to apply the correction of the new rate; not otherwise.
15. At the time when Sir Love Knutsford sanctioned the increased rates of pay, I was the Supreme Court Registrar, and my pay was increased from $4,040 to $6,480. If I had been pensioned off while holding that appointment, my pension in dollars would have been calculated on the larger sum according to my length of service; and, at 4/1⁄2 I would get what the scheme negatived, a larger pension based on the larger pay. I would therefore have been paid at Sir Love Knutsford's lower rate of exchange 3/8 and so have received the original pension of the office and no more.
I held the Registrarship 12 months after the grant of increased pay. I benefited by it to the extent of about $1,220 only as part of the time I was Acting Puisne Judge. I was then promoted Puisne Judge, an office to which a nominal increase of pay had been added, but not more than 14%.
16. My pension on retirement is to be calculated on the basis of that salary, the old one to all intents and purposes; and although the dollar amount of it is not in the least degree enhanced or larger than what it was a dozen years ago, the new rate of exchange, solely to prevent increased pension on going with increased pay, is sought to be applied to me, with the result that if Your Lordship awards me pension, I will receive in Sterling only £1,026-13-4 per annum, or £140 a year less than I would have received if appointed to the office 12 months earlier.
