23rd November 1917

With reference to the semi-official letter which

we addressed to your department on the 15th November

respecting the bonus of 5/6 received by Commander B.R.H.

Taylour R.F., I have the honour to enclose for the

information of the Secretary of State a copy of a l

that we have received from the Admiralty wherein it is

suggested that the circumstances under which the above:

officer and Commander F.S.Rising R.N., (Second class

District Officer Nigeria) received bonuses in lurp se

of £229.7.0 and £210.10.6 respectively for periods up to

the 3rd August last, are such as to justify application

being made to the Treasury for the exemption of the two

officers from any deductions from their civil pay in

respect of such bonuses,

decision

-

2. We shall be glad to know in due course the

arrived at to enable us to issue to the two

officers such Colonial allowance as is due to them.

I have the honour to he,

sir,

Your obedient Servant,

Altamon

for Crown Agents.

The Under Secretary of State,

Colonial Office,

S.W.1.
