MR. HUNTER () (for Mr. CUNTSTINGHAME GRAHAM) (Lanark, N.W.)

asked the Lord Advocate, Whether, in the recent sequestrations of Mr. James M. Russell, which has excited so much attention in Scotland, it is a fact that Mr. Todrich, Procurator Fiscal of Haddingtonshire, acted as agent both for Mr. A. H. Tennent (the landlord) and also for Mr. Russell's Trustee?

THE LORD ADVOCATE (Mr. J. H. A. MACDONALD) (Edinburgh and St. Andrew's Universities)

No, Sir. It is not the fact that Mr. Todrich, the Procurator Fiscal of Haddingtonshire, acted as agent either for Mr. A. H. Tennent, Mr. Russell's landlord, or for the Trustee.
