asked the Secretary of State for War the number of Church of England chaplains, Class IV, at present serving in the Army, showing, respectively, those who are in receipt of benefits accruing from livings still held and those who hold no other preferment, and also the number of those in each of these classes whose rates of pay arc, respectively, 19s. and 15s. 4d, per diem?

The number of such chaplains is 512. Of these, 371 are in receipt of pay at the rate of 19s. a day, and 141 at the rate of 15s. 4d. a day. I have no information as to those who are in receipt of benefits accruing from livings still held, and those who hold no other preferment.
