HC Deb 25 May 1871 vol 206 c1266
MR. A. F. EGERTON

I beg, Sir, to ask the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs a Question of which I have given him private Notice, If any intelligence has been received in regard to the condition of the British Embassy at Paris and the safety of its inmates?

VISCOUNT ENFIELD

I am informed, Sir, that four or five shells have fallen in the immediate vicinity of the Embassy, but we received a telegram yesterday stating that none of the inmates were injured in any way whatever.
