HC Deb 13 July 1863 vol 172 c661
MR. HENRY SEYMOUR

said, he rose to ask the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, Whether he will produce a Copy of the Memorandum communicated by Earl Russell, on the 9th day of July 1863, to Mr. Eastwick, late Her Majesty's Chargé d'Affairs at Teheran, and of Mr. Eastwick's Letter to Earl Russell, requesting him to reconsider his decision dismissing Mr. Eastwick the service, for bringing charges of a gross nature against Mr. Alison, Her Majesty's Minister at Teheran, which he was not able fully to prove?

MR. LAYARD

said, that as at present advised it would be very objectionable to lay the Memorandum upon the table.

MR. HENRY SEYMOUR

Then, Sir, I beg leave to give notice that I shall bring the subject before the House at the earliest opportunity.
