This

clerks
only.

[211]

A
Post-Office
Mutual
Guarantee
Fund,
suggested
by
Mr.
Banning,
the
postmaster
of
Liverpool,
is
in
active
operation
in
London,
and
deserves
mention.
By
means
of
this
fund
many
officers
of
the
Post-Office
have
been
relieved
from
the
necessity
of
providing
personal
securities,
or
of
paying
yearly
sums
to
some
guarantee
office.
Any
clerk
in
London
who
may
wish
to
join
deposits
the
sum
of
10s.,
and
letter-carriers
5s.
These
deposits
are
invested
in
the
name
of
trustees
in
Government
securities.
There
are
at
present
nearly
3,000
subscribers,
with
an
invested
capital
of
900l.
Last
year
there
were
no
demands
at
all
on
the
fund
except
payments
to
members
leaving
the
service,
who
not
only
draw
out
their
original
deposits,
but
are
entitled
to
receive
back
a
proportionate
amount
of
interest
after
defaults
have
been
paid.
