§ MR. CDNINGHAME GRAHAM (Lanark, N. W,)T beg to ask the Attorney General if he proposes to take action on the Memorial presented to him on 13th December, 1889, by Messrs. Meyer and Stackelschiel, in which Memorial certain grave charges are embodied against Messrs. Bell and Co. (Asbestos Co.)?
Sir R. WEBSTERI am unable to trace the Memorial referred to in the question of the hon. Member. My official clerk is absent from ill-health, and until he returns I cannot ascertain if it was ever presented to me. I have learned from the Director of Public Prosecutions that he has no record of it. If the hon. Member will communicate with me I will make full inquiries into the matter.
