Other corrections involve fixing OCR errors such as \"abtained\" to \"obtained\", \"Comin\" to \"Commission\", \"reques\" to \"request\", \"sung.\" to \"suggested\", \"grated madificationg\" to \"modification\", \"Smigration Comme?\" to \"Emigration Committee\", \"Chiness\" to \"Chinese\", \"Agrate\" to \"emigrants\", \"Colomnes\" to \"Colonies\", \"do\" + \"отдих\" (unrecognized characters) to \"would do\", and \"Shavere\" to \"wherever\". \"Kimberly\" seems to be a proper noun or surname that was at the end of the available text.",

(Colonial Regulations, § 43.)\n\n**Head 3**-State the description of Allowance for which the Application is recommended, viz., Superannuation, Compensation, Compassionate Allowance, or Gratuity, and its amount. In the case of Persons claiming an addition to their Pensions in respect of Professional or other special qualifications, this should be stated, and a reference should be given to the authority under which the claim is made.\n\n**Head 5**.-If the service has been interrupted by one or more breaks, the word \"broken\" should be added before or after the number of years and months, and the causes, dates and circumstances of the breaks or break should be stated under heading.\n\n**Head 6**-If the person retiring has been in receipt of the same Salary, or in the class from which he retires, for the 36 months immediately before the date of his retirement, the actual annual rate of Salary or Wages at that date should be inserted, preceded by the word \"actual.\" In other cases the average annual amount of Salary or Wages for the 36 months next preceding the date of retirement should be inserted; preceded by the word \"average,\" but if the whole period of service is less than three years, then the average for the whole period of service should be inserted. **Head 8**-A separate statement should be inserted of the average Annual Value, for the 36 months immediately preceding retirement, of each Emolument (exclusive of salary or wages) which is claimed to be included in the calculation of the pension or Gratuity.\n\nWhenever the value of a House or House Allowance, so ascertained, exceeds one-sixth of the salary and other emoluments which count for Pension purposes, it is to be reduced to one-sixth of that amount, so that it shall not exceed one-seventh of the whole.\n\nFees which an Officer is allowed to retain for his own use will be taken into account for Pension purposes, with regular salary, at the annual average of the net receipts of the 36 months next preceding the Officer's retirement. These net receipts are to be ascertained by deducting from the gross amount of Fees such Office Expenses, &c., an Officer may have had to defray from his own resources, in performing the services for which he was remunerated by Fees. No deduction, however, from the Fees should be made in respect of Office Expenses provided from Public Funds, for the due discharge of those duties to which a Fixed Salary is annexed. Papers of \"Particulars\" when forwarded to the Colonial Department should be accompanied by formal Declarations from the retiring Officers, showing the amount received by them for Fees, and the amount defrayed as above for Office Expenses, &c., in each of the three years immediately preceding the retirement. It will be the duty of the Colonial Governments concerned to satisfy themselves of the accuracy of such statements before forwarding them to the Colonial Office. In the case of Officers receiving Fixed Salaries and Fees, the Fees will not in ordinary circumstances be allowed to count for Pension purposes to the extent of more than one quarter of the Salaries, and Fees will not in any case count for Pension purposes during any period in which the whole time of the Officer is not given to the Public Service.\n\n**Head 7**.-In cases of infirmity if the Applicant is below the ordinary age for retirement, a Certificate is to be furnished showing that he is disqualified by infirmity of mind or body for discharging the duties of his situation, and that such infirmity is likely to be permanent.\n\nIn case of ten years' service or more, this Certificate should be signed by two Officers, of whom at least one should, if possible, be a Salaried Officer of the Government.\n\n**Head 9**.-As to \"broken\" service, see **Head 5**.\n\nIf the Applicant has had any \"acting service,\" the details must be fully given, with a statement whether or not, during the \"acting\" service, he was connected with the permanent Civil Service of the Colony.\n\n**Head 11**.-If, in special circumstances, a professional Civil Officer has been allowed to have \"private practice\" without forfeiting his claim to Pension, the facts are to be fully stated.\n\n**Head 14**-If the Applicant is liable to any deduction from his service under Clause 12 of the Colonial Regulations, the facts should be fully stated.\n\n**Head 19**.-The length of service and other particulars of the computation are to be given. When an average of Salary, &c., is taken, the mode of calculating it (whether by months, &c.) is to be explained.\n\n(1) Officers having joined the service before 1st July, 1897, are entitled to draw their pension in England at rate of 3/8d, the dollar; others who joined later to 8/- the Dollar.\n\n(2) Indians having joined the service before 23rd June, 1895, and drawing pension in India are entitled to exchange at the rate of Rs. 227 for every $100; others who joined later to Rs. 200 for every $100.\n\nDRAFT.\n\n**Hongkong.**  \nNo. 198  \nHis S.
