§ MR PERCY WYNDHAMsaid, he would beg to ask the Secretary of State for War, Whether it is intended to make further withdrawals of troops from country quarters, and concentrate them in larger numbers than at present at the Military Stations at Aldershot and Colchester; and whether any further enlargement of the barracks at Colchester, or of the buildings connected with them, is in contemplation?
THE MARQUESS OF HARTINGTON,in reply, said, it was not the intention of the Commander-in-Chief to quarter a larger number of troops, either at Aldershot or Colchester, than the number usually stationed at those places, or to erect any further barracks at Colchester.
