Copy of a letter from the Director, Royal Indian Marine,
Bom lay, to the Secretary to the Government of India, Marine
Department, Delhi, (through the Controller of Marine Accounts]
Bo. 148/R. , dated the 6th January 1913.
Subject:- Ann ointment of a clerk to the r : earchus ,T for
lighthouse work in the Persian Gulf.
With reference to paragraph l(e) of Marine Department
letter Bo. 1498-M. , dated 19th October 1922, I have the

Rs. 2 /- per d-iem or Rs. 60/- per mensem, so that the civilian
Clerk would cost Government more than

further, separate arrangements would have to be made for the
messing of the Civilian clerk, as he cannot be ranked as a
Warrant Officer and he is not a rating.
I would further point out that in case of illness
of the Clerk in question or the grant of leave to him, a
