§ MR. SOTHERON-ESTCOURTasked the First Commissioner of Works, Whether he is aware that great annoyance and danger is caused to riders in Rotten Row by the disorderly conduct of persons on their way to the bathing place in the Serpentine; and, whether he will be good enough to take measures, by increasing the number of police on duty there, or otherwise, to put a stop to it?
LORD HENRY LENNOX,in reply, said, that until his hon. Friend had put down his Question his attention had not this year been called to the great annoyance and danger referred to. He would, however, lose no time in calling the attention of the police to the subject, with a view to prevent the recurrence of these outrages. He might, however, perhaps, remind the House that, with a view to abate that and similar nuisances, he had caused those mounds to be raised and planted with shrubs which had been so severely criticized in the early part of the Session.
