HC Deb 02 August 1898 vol 63 cc850-1
MR. R. WALLACE

I beg to ask the Lord Advocate whether he has received the Report by the keeper of the Sasines Office, Edinburgh, to which he has referred, and can he state how soon the application of the seven hours will be made; and, if not, what is the cause of the delay?

THE LORD ADVOCATE (Mr. GRAHAM MURRAY,) Buteshire

The Report by the keeper of the Sasines referred to by the honourable Member has now been fully examined, and laid by the Secretary for Scotland before the Lords Commissioners of Her Majesty's Treasury, for their favourable consideration.
