Sir

I have the honor to make application for reappointment
in the Queensland Police Service. Should a vacancy
occur I beg that my former Service may be taken into
Consideration as a recommendation for reappointment.

I have served (4) years in the Native Mounted Police
in this District & having received an appointment in May
/84 as Cadet ; and received promotion to the rank of
2nd. C. Sub Inspr. within twele months ; holding this appointment
to the Satisfaction of my Superior Officers for three years, until
23rd. June 1888, when in consequence of urgent private
affairs, which I believed necessitated a trip to England, and being
unable to obtain leave of absence, I reluctantly proffered my
resignation which was accepted on 23rd June /88.

Trusting that my Application may receive favourable notice

I have the honor to be
Sir
Your obedient Servant
[signed] Rowland W. Garraway

Under Col. Secretary
