HC Deb 22 August 1804 vol 29 c282
MR. COBB (Warwick, S.E., Rugby)

asked the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether it was true, as stated in the newspapers, that the appeal of Jabez Balfour had been dismissed?

SIR E. GREY

The Foreign Office have had no further information beyond that which I communicated to the House the other day; and I wish to enter a caveat on this occasion as regards the information received at the Foreign Office. So far from the information received by the Foreign Office being a month after time, it has been up to date; while other information has been a month, before the fact.
