HC Deb 15 March 1895 vol 31 c1155
MR. J. W. LOWTHER (Cumberland, Penrith)

Can the Government give us any information with regard to the very alarming telegrams from Now South Wales?

MR. SYDNEY BUXTON

I deeply regret to say that Sir Robert Duff died yesterday from the effects of an operation rendered necessary by the state of his health. His lamented death is a very great loss to the public service; and, to everyone who knew him in this House and outside, his loss will be the subject of very great regret indeed.
