HC Deb 04 March 1895 vol 31 cc286-7
MR. CYRIL DODD (Essex, Maldon)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department if Mr. Justice Wills is unfortunately prevented by illness from taking the business of the north-eastern Circuit, as announced; and, if so, what arrangement has been made in order that inconvenience may not arise from his absence for the conduct of the business at the York and the Leeds Assizes?

MR. ASQUITH

I am informed that arrangements have been made by Mr. Justice Charles for his being joined by another Judge at Leeds; with regard to York, owing to the business being unusually light, he is able, on this occasion, to dispose of it himself without inconvenience to the public.
