§ MR. HAYDEN (for Mr. HARRISON,) Tipperary, MidI beg to ask the Financial Secretary to the War Office whether he has ever had under his own personal consideration the case of Lieutenant Colonel Maguire, late of the 60th Rifles, with reference to his claim for "compensation for loss of good service pay, pension, &c"?
§ MR. BRODRICKYes, Sir. The case has been repeatedly considered since 1866, and the Secretary of State personally decided five years ago that Lieutenant Colonel Maguire had no claim. It is not a case connected with the abolition of purchase.
