HC Deb 30 June 1870 vol 202 c1205
MR. H. B. SHERIDAN

said, he wished to ask the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, Whether any information has been received by Her Majesty's Government with reference to the alleged invasion of the Mexican Republic by citizens of Guatemala, with the object of detaching the States of Yucatan, Tehuantepic, and Oaxaca from the first named Federation?

MR. OTWAY
