In compliance with instructions received, I met with Mrs. Stymain's wife (for she had sent word that she had come) today and produced the documents attached from Europe.
The only thing necessary to satisfy the requirements regarding her identity and the pension specified in the Settler's letter was to produce witnesses to the marriage.
What steps ought to be taken to satisfy this? She stated that she would produce witnesses to the marriage.
R.E.G. 30/8.
Tell her to write to her father-in-law and ask for a letter (to be produced to us) acknowledging her as his late son's wife, and tell her to get a statutory declaration made by one of the witnesses to the marriage that she was the person married to W. Stymain on 27 April 1901. JJR. 30/8.
So proceed, forwarding the enclosures. C.P.L. 31st on No. 2/9.
