HC Deb 03 February 1847 vol 89 c769
MR. HUME

wished to ask the right hon. Secretary at War whether any arrangements had been made to continue the Military Statistics of India which Major Tulloch had formerly prepared. These statistics were of the greatest importance, as it was only by their means that they could tell anything about the health of the troops. He would also ask whether the hon. Gentleman had received from India the returns he (Mr. Hume) had moved for some time ago on this subject?

MR. F. MAULE

was not aware whether the returns had been received, but he would inquire at the War Office. With respect to the statistics of Major Tulloch, the time of that gallant officer had been occupied latterly in other matters, but it was intended to resume them as soon as possible.

House adjourned at a quarter past One o'clock.
