HC Deb 03 July 1900 vol 85 c402
MAJOR RASCH (Essex, S.E.)

I beg to ask the Financial Secretary to the War Office whether he is aware that the Royal Reserve Regiment of Hussars, now quartered at Hounslow, has been embodied for seven weeks, and had up to last week received no grooming kit and only sixteen saddles, so that the regiment is compelled to drag their horses round the barrack square with ropes and chains; and when the Department propose to make this cavalry corps efficient.

*MR. WYNDHAM

The requisitions for the saddlery and grooming kits were not received at Woolwich until the 20th June, the whole supply was despatched on or before the 28th June.
