HC Deb 06 March 1900 vol 80 c205
SIR BRAMPTON GURDON (Norfolk, N.)

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for War to what place the British Central African natives, lately in Mauritius and now said to be at sea, are going, and for what purpose.

*Mr. BRODRICK (for Mr. WYNDHAM)

The battalion is on its way to Somaliland, where local disorder has rendered its presence desirable.
