§ MR. A. M. SULLIVANasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department, If he has further considered the Memorial presented to him in the case of William Lynch, imprisoned at Cardiff for an offence against the Shipping Act?
§ SIR WILLIAM HARCOURT, in reply, said, that he had caused inquiries to be made in this case some time ago, and it being found that Lynch was unable to pay the heavy fine imposed upon him, the sentence was altered, with the consent of the Judge, to imprisonment for six months.
