§ MR. CADOGANasked the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, Whether Her Majesty's Government have taken, or propose to take, any steps for the protection of British subjects and British property in Paris and at the French ports; and, whether it is proposed that Lord Lyons and the Staff of the British Embassy should follow the chief of the executive power to Versailles or remain in Paris?
§ VISCOUNT ENFIELDThe French Government have requested Lord Lyons to join them at Versailles, and he has been authorized to do so, unless circumstances should appear to render it undesirable. In the event of his leaving Paris Lord Lyons has been directed to make all possible provision for the safety of British subjects, and to leave in charge of British interests Mr. Atlee and one or more Secretaries of the Embassy. Lord Lyons was further requested to furnish General Claremont with such instructions as, under existing circumstances, would render his services of the most value.
