HC Deb 29 July 1898 vol 63 c438
MR. O'KELLY (Roscommon, N.)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether an armed force has been landed in the island of Inagua by the President of the Republic of San Domingo for the purpose of seizing the person of Juan Isidro Timinez, a Cuban political refugee; and whether orders will be sent to the governor of the island to prevent the seizure or surrender of this man?

THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR THE COLONIES

I think the name of the island must be Inagua. I have received no information of any such proceeding. Inquiry will be made of the Governor of the Bahamas.
