HC Deb 25 June 1877 vol 235 c201
MR. O'CONNOR POWER

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department, If he has any objection to lay upon the Table of the House Copies of the Reports of the trials held at Manchester in 1867 in connection with the shooting of Sergeant Brett?

MR. ASSHETON CROSS

There are no official Reports connected with this matter that I am aware of. No doubt, there are the shorthand-writers' notes, and I believe the newspapers of the time gave very full reports of the trial; in fact, they contain all the information it is possible to get. I have nothing to add to what was published.
