HC Deb 04 June 1874 vol 219 c964
MR. O'REILLY

asked the Secretary of State for War, Whether it is the intention of the Military authorities, during the present drill season, to call for volunteers from each Militia regiment, at the close of its training, for the linked corps of the Line?

MR. GATHORNE HARDY

, in reply, said, that the special condition of the linked Corps service at the present moment would not render it necessary to make any special call for volunteers from the Militia. Volunteers would, however, be accepted, and, as a rule would, as far as possible, be posted in the brigade of the sub-district to which they belonged.
