I beg to bring to your notice that when I

was pensioned off at the end of September 1895 on the aboli -

tion of my office, I applied to the Chairman of the WidowS'

and Orphans' Pensions rund, and received the refund of one

half of my total contributions to the fund under section 17

of urdinance No.30 of 1890 as I retired from service as ba-

chelor.

Now that I am recalled to service,I presume,

I shall have to contribute towards this fund, I therefore,

most respectfully, beg that I may be permitted to re-pay the

said one half of ay total contribution together with the

amount I should have contributed during the time I was on

temporary pension (which is countea to my service see Pen-

sion Minute No.10 of Government Gazette page 575 dated 3rd.

July, 1894) at the rate of 10 per cent per month out of

salary until the whole amount is paid and thus be allowed

The Honourable

Henry Ernest Wodehouse, C. M. G.
