HC Deb 16 March 1891 vol 351 c1052
VISCOUNT WOLMER (Hants, Petersfield)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War why sentries are posted outside the Home Office and the Foreign Office?

*MR. E. STANHOPE

It has always been customary to post a sentry in front of certain important Government Offices, and its utility has been proved upon more than one occasion.
