HC Deb 09 March 1876 vol 227 c1715
MR. HAYTER

asked the Secretary of State for War, How many of the sentries at the West End have been taken off; and, whether a corresponding reduction has been made in the strength of the Guards?

MR. GATHORNE HARDY

, in reply, said, that there had been some six or seven sentries taken off at the West End, which represented 18 men. In several of the Guards there had been reduction, but in others there had not; and, therefore, the total reduction in the Guards altogether amounted to nine men.
