HC Deb 17 July 1900 vol 86 c224
MR. PATRICK O'BRIEN (Kilkenny)

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for War whether he has any information to the effect that Lieutenant Tossel, of the Transvaal Police, and Mr. Solomon Gillingham have been condemned to death in Pretoria for alleged complicity to blow up the magazine; and whether he can say if Mr. Gillingham holds military rank in the Republican Army or what is his occupation, and when the trial took place, before what tribunal, what was the evidence of guilt, and when the sentence is to be carried into effect.

* MR. WYNDHAM

There is no information at the War Office in regard to the matters referred to in the question.
