HC Deb 09 July 1897 vol 50 cc1468-9
MR. J. McLEOD (Sutherland)

I beg to ask the Lord Advocate whether steps will be taken, by means of a Supplementary Estimate or otherwise, to preserve for the Scottish people the historical relics now having a habitation at Culloden House, and which are advertised for public sale?

*THE LORD ADVOCATE (Mr. GRAHAM MURRAY,) Buteshire

The Secretary for Scotland has directed the attention of the responsible authorities to the approaching dispersion of the Culloden Collection, and the question whether any of the relics are of a character suitable for acquisition on behalf of the nation will receive due consideration.
