Pension
Olusoga, in the source cited, says that Alder received (in 1863) "a pension of £70" (the figure is also visible in Alder's own hand, on screen) and that this was "the equivalent of £40,000 in today's money". Online sources (e.g. ) says that £70 in 1863 is worth ~£8,700 today. converts the amount to £. Was that £70 quarterly? How can the difference be explained?
