§ MR. TULLYI beg to ask the Financial Secretary to the War Office whether the Chelsea Commissioners have received any application for a continuance of his pension of sixpence a day from Patrick Dolan, Carrick-on-Shannon, late a private of the 60th Foot (regimental number 1,313); on what ground his pension was stopped after being paid for three years; and whether, as he is now in a destitute condition, the pension will be again paid to him?
THE FINANCIAL SECRETARY TO THE WAR OFFICE (Mr. J. POWELL-WILLIAMS,) Birmingham, S.The Commissioners of Chelsea Hospital have received several applications for the continuance of the temporary pension which they awarded to Patrick Dolan on his discharge in 1869; but his service was too short to entitle him to a permanent pension, and his record did not justify the renewal of the temporary grant.
