HC Deb 26 February 1880 vol 250 c1444
MR. RULESTON

asked the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, Whether he has received any information as to the annexation of Medina to Liberia; and, if it be a fact, whether he can give the House the terms of such acquisition, and how far it may affect the trade and commerce of Sierra Leone and the Sherbro?

MR. BOURKE

No, Sir. The intelligence as to the annexation of Medina by Liberia has not reached the Foreign Office.
