HC Deb 25 May 1871 vol 206 c1265
COLONEL STUART KNOX

asked the Secretary of State for War, Whether, when the House is in Committee on the Army Bill, he will produce any Letter written either by the War Office or the Horse Guards to young gentlemen writing for Commissions in reference to the proposed abolition of purchase?

MR. CARDWELL

said, in reply, that he really did not know to what letter the hon. and gallant Gentleman alluded. If he wanted any document, and would give him due notice, he should be happy to see if he could produce it.
