HC Deb 07 March 1881 vol 259 c424
MR. CARTWRIGHT

asked the Under Secretary of State for the Colonies, Whether he would lay upon the Table of the House, the Reports made by Major Butler and Colonel Colley on the state of feeling prevalent in the Boer populations of Transvaal and the Orange Free State?

MR. GRANT DUFF

I regret that I cannot do what my hon. Friend wishes. These Reports were altogether confidential, and contain matter which it would not be for the advantage of the Public Service to publish at present.
