HC Deb 07 August 1902 vol 112 c974
MR. DILLON (Mayo, E.)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether the body of a man named John M'Grath, killed by an accident at the Bold Colliery, Earlestown, Lancashire, has by order of the Coroner been kept for three days on the colliery premises, with the result that the colliers refused to work in the pit; and whether he will inquire into the grounds on which this action has been taken by the Coroner.

*THE SECERTARY OF STATE FOR THE HOME DEPARTMENT (MR. RITCHIE, Croydon)

I am making inquiries into this matter.
