HC Deb 29 March 1867 vol 186 c816
MR. EWART

said, he wished to ask the First Commissioner of Works, Whether he has been able to give effect to the wishes of this House, as expressed last Session in an Address to Her Majesty the Queen, that an appropriate place be found, within the precincts of the Palace of Westminster, for the reception of a Bust of the late Joseph Hume, Esq., presented by his widow?

LORD JOHN MANNERS

said, in reply, that immediately after Her Majesty's gracious reply to the Address in question had been received, he had made inquiry as to the wishes of those who were naturally most interested about the spot in which the bust should be placed, and he was happy to say, as the result of those inquiries, that it would very shortly be placed in the Library of the House of Commons.
