PAY OF OFFICERS - RETURNING FROM
We have been frequently asked what pay officers coming
home from India on sick certificate or private affairs receive,
and whether a free passage is provided in either case ? We
can state that officers returning from India, both on private
affairs and by medical advice, receive regimental pay of their
rank only, their Indian allowances ceasing from the day
they leave the presidency. The invalid officer receives a
fixed sum to grovicle his passage home and back to India,
which is sufficient for the expenses overland. Officers re-
turning on their private affairs must pay their own passage.
Sick officers have the privilege of resorting to any British
settlement east of the Cape, including the Cape itself, dur-
ing the term of their leave, which is limited to a year, but
an extension may be obtained should the officer's health re-
quire it. All officers in such case—not passing the Cape--
receive pay. equal to half batta; according to rank, which,
for a captain is about £3O a month, a lieutenant £22, and .
an ensign £18: Officers of the company's service are under
the same regulations.— United Service Gazette.
