actually serving in the Colony. Mr. Grant at present holds

the appointment of Assistant Master of the Police School

for which he receives $480 per annum, with exchange com-

-pensation at 3 shillings to the dollar. This at the

present rate of exchange amounts to about $720 per annum.

He would of course be required to resign this appointment.

Should he not desire to do this it would probably be

necessary to place a Master junior to him in Queen's

College above him in the Police School, continuing him as

Assistant Master under the present conditions of that

appointment.

If Mr. Grant accepts the charge

of the Police School I propose to fix the temporary allow-

-ance to be given to the Officer who will succeed him as

Assistant Master at $600 per annum of course without ex-

-change compensation. My reason for suggesting this amount

..

instead of the approximate equivalent of the salary now

#to

drawn by the Assistant Master is that the allowance now

drawn by the Normal Master at Queen's College is $600 per

annum and that the work done for this allowance (at present

drawn by Mr. Ralphs who is next to Mr. Dealy on the Staff

of Queen's College) is at least equal to the work of the

Assistant
