HC Deb 04 August 1898 vol 64 c75
MR. BROADHURST (Leicester)

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for War whether his attention has been drawn to the strange conduct of an officer in the Leicestershire Regiment, now stationed in Natal, towards the men under his command; and whether he is aware that in the camp at Fort Napier the distribution of water in the lines is so unequal that the Leicestershire Regiment has not a sufficient supply?

THE UNDER SECRETARY OF STATE FOR WAR (Mr. ST. JOHN BRODRICK,) Surrey, Guildford

It has not been possible to obtain from South Africa a Report on this subject, as it was only called for on the 22nd July.
