HC Deb 31 July 1891 vol 356 c925
MR. ROBY

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he can recommend Her Majesty to release Austin Bid well, who has spent 18 years in prison, having been convicted of forgery in 1873, and sentenced at the age of 25 to penal servitude for life?

MR. MATTHEWS

I answered this question on the 14th inst., and I have nothing to add to the answer which I then gave.
