§ CAPTAIN PIMSir, I wish to ask my hon. Friend the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs a Question, of which I have given him private Notice. It is to ask him, If he will be kind enough to telegraph at once to the Consul General at Havannah in reference to the case of George White, the British sailor, about whose imprisonment there I put a Question to Mm yesterday? I can only say that it would be an act of great kindness to allay the anxiety of his friends and relations at Gravesend.
§ MR. BOURKEIn answer to my hon. and gallant Friend, I can only say that I will consult my noble Friend the Foreign Secretary, and if he has no objection, I will telegraph as my hon. and gallant Friend desires.
