MR. MONTAGU SCOTT

asked the Secretary of State for War, If Her Majesty's Government have received any details as to the death of Colonel Burnaby in the battle of Abu Klea on the 17th of January, beyond that he was pierced with a spear in the neck?

THE MARQUESS OF HARTINGTON

No, Sir; I have had nothing more than the list of casualties telegraphed by Lord Wolseley on the 21st of January.
