&c &c &c

Sir,

According to the Regulations of the Civil Service I have presented myself for medical examination in order to become member of a Life Insurance. I have however been declined. As such a case is not provided by the Regulations I beg to report the matter to you lest I might be accused of having broken the Regulations referring to the Life Insurance of Members of the Public Service.

I have the honor to be

Sir

your most humble Servant

G Renner

Custos of Bot Museum1

M referred Renner's letter to the Chief Secretary; see M to G. Berry, 26 September 1885, and notes thereto.
