RULE II. (4).—If the second, or subsequent, wife was

at the date of the re-marriage of a less or greater age next birthday than the last preceding wife would have been had she survived to that date, multiply the amount of the registered pension by the quantity found from Table C corresponding to the age next birthday of the husband at the date of re- marriage, and the age next birthday which the last preceding wife would have attained had she survived to that date; multiply the product so obtained by the quantity found from Table A corresponding to the respective ages of the husband and of the second, or subsequent, wife at the date of the re-marriage. The result gives the registered pension to be recorded
