HC Deb 25 June 1875 vol 225 c629

Bill considered in Committee.

(In the Committee.)

Clause 3.

Amendment proposed in page 1, line 16, to leave out the words "and shall thereby cause its death."—(Mr. Morgan Lloyd.)

Question proposed, "That the words proposed to be left out stand part of the Clause."

MR. GOLDSMID

moved that the Chairman report Progress, and ask leave to sit again.

MR. CHARLEY

said, he hoped before the Motion to report Progress was agreed to, the Amendment of the hon. and learned Member for Beaumaris would be accepted. The Recorder, the hon. Member for Taunton (Sir Henry James), and the hon. Member for Durham (Mr. Herschell) had all urged upon him its acceptance, and he felt it impossible to resist the Amendment.

Question put, and negatived.

Amendment agreed to; words struck out accordingly.

House resumed.

Committee report Progress, to sit again upon Thursday next.
