HC Deb 21 July 1890 vol 347 c374
MR. E. ROBERTSON (Dundee)

Can the Government confirm the statement in this morning's papers from Newfoundland that the litigation as to Mr. Baird's lobster factory has terminated by the commanding officer paying the damages claimed by Mr. Baird; and is the Under Secretary for Foreign Affairs prepared to state what was the legal authority under which the commanding officer acted?

* SIR J. FERGUSSON

I must ask for notice of that question.
