HC Deb 12 March 1901 vol 90 cc1354-5
Mr. TULLY

I beg to ask the Financial Secretary to the War Office whether a claim has been received from the Boyle Board of Guardians for a sum of £5 5s. for the maintenance of a boy named Joseph Grady, the son of Private John Grady, now serving with the first battalion of the Connaught Rangers; and whether he will direct that this sum, which is calculated at 3d. a day, will be forwarded to the workhouse authorities in Boyle.

LORD STANLEY

This claim has been received. Under the Army Act the man is only liable to a stoppage of 3d. for the support of his family. This 3d. has been paid to the man's wife. The clerk to the guardians has been informed accordingly.
