of the Irish Constabulary, by the Colonial Treasurer of that
Colony, at the rate of £29 per annum, from 1st April 1863 inclusive, in conformity with the instructionscontained
contained
in the accompanying papers. I am also to request that until
further orders the Pensioner on claiming exemption from

Declaration as regards Income, which Declaration should be
attached to the voucher for the first payment made after that date.
