HC Deb 08 May 1893 vol 12 c331
MR. THOMAS BAYLEY (Derbyshire, Chesterfield)

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if he bus any further information to give the House with regard to the escaped slave who was taken by the police of the East African Chartered Company from the protection of the British flag and ordered back to her owner by the administrator in the Company's Court, and finally released from enforced servitude by the missionary buying her freedom?

SIR E. GREY

We have received no official Reports on this case. We understand that there has been Correspondence on this subject between the British East Africa Company and the Bruce Road Free Methodist Church, in which the question, which is connected with that of the reception of fugitive slaves at Mission Stations, has been discussed.
