HC Deb 11 February 1875 vol 222 cc215-6
MR. W. CARTWRIGHT

asked the Under Secretary of State for the Colonies, When Papers will be presented in reference to recent transactions on the Gold Coast Settlement between Governor Strahan and the Native Chiefs for the suppression of slavery in the British Protectorate?

MR. J. LOWTHER

Sir, Papers in reference to the subject referred to in the Question of the hon. Member were laid upon the Table on Tuesday last, and I hope will all be in the hands of hon. Members in the course of a day or two, if they have not already been delivered. They contain the memorials of the Kings and Chiefs, together with Governor Strahan's explanations and observations thereupon.
