Mr. WATT (Glasgow College, Min.) asked the Prime Minister whether the retiring President of the Divorce, Probate, and Admiralty Court was, by his length of service, entitled to a pension?

Mr. ASQUITH.-I understand that the pension in question was granted upon a medical certificate.

In reply to a further question by Mr. WATT,

Mr ASQUITH said:--A Judge is entitled to his pension when he has served 15 years. He is also entitled to it if he is disabled by infirmity before he has served 15 years.
