HC Deb 12 July 1861 vol 164 c801
MR. KINNAIRD

said, he would beg to ask the Secretary of State for India, Whether any Papers have been sent home relative to an application made by Mr. Martin, Principal of the Government School at Berhampore, to the Lieutenant Governor of Bengal, for permission to open a Bible Class in the School under his charge; and, if so, whether he has any objection to lay them upon the Table of the House? And if they have not been received, whether he will direct their early transmission in order to lay them upon the table?

SIR CHARLES WOOD

replied that some Papers on the subject had been received, but not from the Government of India, and he was not prepared to lay them on the Table. He would, however, write to India on the subject.
