($37.50) per month payable to the legal guardian of such children,
to be administered in accordance with the orders of the
Probate Court. As each child becomes sixteen (16) years of
age, the children's part of Thirty-seven Dollars and Fifty Cents
($37.50) per month shall thereafter be for the use and benefit
of the children who then remain under the age of sixteen (16)
years. When there are no longer any children under the age of
sixteen (16) years, the entire amount of Seventy-five Dollars
($75) per month shall be paid the surviving wife. When there
is no surviving wife, but there are surviving children under the
age of sixteen (16) years, the entire Seventy-five Dollars ($75)
per month shall be paid to the legal guardian of such children
under the age of sixteen (16) years, but such payments shall not
be made for or on account of any child after said child reaches
the age of sixteen (16) years. Should such surviving wife
thereafter die, then the entire Seventy-five Dollars ($75) shall
likewise be paid for the benefit of such children as remain under
the age of sixteen (16) years. If there be neither a surviving
wife nor surviving children under the age of sixteen (16), then
such payments shall be made to the dependent parent, or parents,
if any, of such deceased member. If there be two (2) dependent
parents, then the Seventy-five Dollars ($75) per month shall
be divided equally between them, but if there be only one dependent
parent, the Seventy-five Dollars ($75) per month shall
be paid to said parent.

No death benefits whatever shall be paid after the expiration
of ten (10) years from the death of any said member, and no
beneficiary shall ever receive more than Seventy-five Dollars
($75) per month.
In the event of women members of the department, their
surviving husbands shall be entitled to the same rights and benefits
as have the wives of the male members.
SEC. 13. When any member who has been retired upon pension,
whether retirement pension or disability pension, or when
any member who has a pension certificate shall thereafter die
from any cause, his pension of Seventy-five Dollars ($75) per
month shall be payable to his dependents, if any, as is provided
in the next preceding Section hereof, but only for the unexpired
portion of ten (10) years. In computing said ten (10) years,
such length of time as a pension may have been paid to said
member during his lifetime shall be deducted from such ten-year
period, and such dependents shall receive said payment only for
the unexpired term of ten (10) years.
