HC Deb 05 March 1891 vol 351 c222
SIR JOHN KENNAWAY (Devon, Honiton)

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he can obtain from Her Majesty's Ambassador at Constantinople any information respecting the delay in granting a firman to the English Episcopal Church at Nablus, which was erected in 1881, and opened for service in 1882; and whether he will instruct Her Majesty's Ambassador to use his friendly offices with the Ottoman Government to procure the issuing of the firman?

THE UNDER SECRETARY OF STATE FOR FOREIGN AFFAIRS (Sir J. FERGUSSON,) Manchester, N.E.

Her Majesty's Ambassador is using his friendly offices with the Ottoman Government.
