PENSION GOES WITH CROSS
Most Highly Priced Decoration Of the
British Army Also Carries a
Financial Reward.

In the original instrument, drawn
ip in 1856. when the Victoria cross
va, instituted, Rule IA declares:
at is ordained that every warrant
officer, petty officer, seaman or ma
rine or nOncommissiOned officer OIL
soldier who shall have received the
cross shall from the date of the act
by which the decoration has been
gained, be entitled to a special pen
sion of so a year, and each addi-
Cional bar conferred under Rule 4
On such warrant or petty officers OF
noncommissioned officers or men
shall carry with it an additional pen
sion of Go per annum."
The Rule 4 referred to provides
that when a man who holds the Vic
toria cross performs another act of
bravery that would have entitled him
10 the cross if he did not hold it,
he shall have bar. Apparently the
number of bars he may win is I'M
limited.
In 1898 an alteration was agreed
to 10 regard to the rule about Victo-
ria cross pensions.
"In July, 1898, it was decided
that, at the secretary of states dis
erection, sum of $50 year may be
granted by way of pension in lieu of
the SO which has accompanied the
V c. since its institution"
This is difference only in amount
It very welcome difference in some
cases no doubt. 1t does not extend
the scope of the grant, for only such
men may gel the ESQ a wear as were
before entitled to the f10, seeing
that the $50 is "in lien of the SO"
