HC Deb 10 May 1869 vol 196 cc469-70
MR. BENTINCK

said, he wished to ask the Secretary to the Treasury, Whether Copy of a Paper entitled "The History of the Edmunds Scandal, by Leonard Edmunds," is now on record in the Treasury, and, if so, whether he will lay the same upon the Table of the House?

MR. AYRTON

in reply, said, it was true that Mr. Edmunds had written a letter to the Lords of the Treasury to say that he had the honour to enclose a copy of a Paper entitled ''The History of the Edmunds Scandal," and to request that they would cause the same to be made a record of the Treasury. The Treasury was not exactly the place for recording everything that any person chose to send there, and therefore, if Mr. Edmunds was anxious to have the Paper presented to Parliament he thought he had better choose some other channel than that office.
