You will see from Form 180
5730
+
that
4 subsequent passes
Rumsey's emoluments were
£600 p.a., with quarters
or an allowance in lieu thereof ( + travelling allowance, which, of course, do not count). The amount of the value of the quarters
is not stated in Form 180 but I think that we
may
let it go at £80, which is less than
½d of above.

I have the honour to transmit for your
consideration the enclosed copy of a letter from Commander
R. Murray Rumsey, Harbour Master, relative to the amount of
pension to which, in the event of his retirement from the
Public Service, he may become entitled in respect of his
period of service in the Gold Coast Colony.
2.
As a direct communication between this
Colony and the Government of Gold Coast seemed likely to necessitate further references from the Gold Coast to the Colonial
Office, and thereby involve some considerable delay which
Captain Rumsey is anxious to avoid, I considered it desirable
to refer his communication in the first instance to you. I
have, therefore the honour to request that you will be so
good as to furnish the Gold Coast Government, in transmitting
Captain Rumsey's letter to that Colony, with such further
information as to his pensionable service as to you may seem
desirable.
