HC Deb 05 July 1889 vol 337 c1583
SIR W. LAWSON (Cumberland, Cockermouth)

I wish to ask the Secretary of State for War if he has any information concerning the continued fighting on the Nile, which was reported in the newspapers this morning?

* THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR WAR (Mr. E. STANHOPE,) Lincolnshire, Horncastle

I have received no information of further fighting. The enemy appears to be somewhere in the neighbourhood of our own forces, but I can give no information as to any further fighting.
