§ MR. T. CHAMBERSsaid, he would beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for India, When the Jhansi Prize Money (second instalment) will be paid; and, whether there will be any prize money for Gwalior, Calpee, and other places in Central India captured by Sir Hugh Rose?
MR. GRANT DUFFSir, nearly the whole of the money known as the Jhansi Prize Money was paid away at the first distribution. Only about £10,000 was kept back to meet expected claims. Most of this reserved fund has now been paid away. If there is any further distribution it will be an altogether trifling one. The term Jhansi Prize Money includes all the prize money due for the booty captured by Sir Hugh Rose's force at Gwalior, Calpee, and other places in Central India.
