other matters as may be specified in the rules, a retiring resident magistrate
who retires from office otherwise than on the ground of ill-health, after the

retirement, in return for the benefits allowed under the rules such part, not
exceeding one-third of his personal pension, as may be specified in the rules,
and for enabling that Ministry to grant to the wife or to a dependant of the
