MR. FREVILLE-SURTEESsaid, he would beg to ask the Secretary of State for War, Whether he intends proposing any pensions to the widows and children of deceased Adjutants and Quartermasters of Militia Regiments?
THE MARQUESS OF HARTINGTONsaid, in reply, that as the officers referred to were not liable to the dangers of foreign service common to officers in the Line, pensions to their widows and children had invariably been refused. He saw no reason for making the proposed change.
