HC Deb 21 May 1883 vol 279 c587
MR. BIGGAR

asked the Secretary of State for War, Whether it is a fact that, since appointment of Adjutant of Antrim Artillery, the Commanding Officer has been in the habit of incorrectly certifying that the. Adjutant kept a horse, thereby enabling him to draw forage allowance; and, whether it is a fact that it is only within the last few weeks that this Officer has been in temporary possession of a horse?

MR. BRAND,

in reply, said, he had been requested by his noble Friend (the Marquess of Hartington) to state that as these matters related to questions of discipline, they were now being inquired into; and he would ask the hon. Member for that reason to postpone his Question to Thursday week.

MR. BIGGAR

said, that he would do so.
