II. SECOND, AND SUBSEQUENT, WIFE'S PROSPECTIVE

PENSION.

(s) Variations of pension consequent on increments to, and decrements from, the current annual contri- bution while the contributor is a widower.

RULE II. (a). Assume that the contributor is married to a wife of the age that his last preceding wife would have been had she survived to the date of the variation of the contribution, and proceed in accordance with Rule I. (c).

EXAMPLE of the application of Rule II. (a).

If the particulars be as in the Example sub- joined to Rule I. (c), except that the first wife, who was born on 31st August, 1868, died on 30th November, 1888, it would be assumed that the contributor was at the date of each of the three variations of the contribution married to a wife who was born on the 31st August, 1868. The calcula- tions will then be identical with those given in the Example subjoined to Rule 1. (c).

(B) Variations of pension consequent on the remarri-

age of the contributor.

NOTE.-No variation of the registered pension is to be recorded if the second, or subsequent, wife was at the date of the re-marriage of the same age next birthday as the last preceding wife would have been had she survived to that date.
