Mrs. Puisse enquired today if any further increase had been granted in the allowances, and was likely to be granted. I told her that no further increase had been granted nor was likely to be granted in the near future. She seemed fairly resigned to her fate and was rapidly consuming her small store of savings. The writer proposed to write to the Secretary on the subject.

I gave my suggestion to AH. I just say we put in a 5% or 8% lender too at £60 pa.

Sir, I am making a further application to you as there is going to be any reduction in the Widows & Orphans Pension. The present rate is a weak living, and last September it was impossible to buy and get by. I was in a bad state, but the widow of the late Pierce Acting Clerk Victoria Goal Hung Hom would be very grateful.

I think cases of this sort should be considered individually, and I would not suggest a general increase in the percentage.

Perhaps her letter to Dr. Severn will produce some result.
