HC Deb 13 March 1902 vol 104 c1257
MR. NORMAN

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War whether he will take steps to prevent in future the issue of official despatches containing elementary errors of topography, such as "Wynburg" for "Vryburg" in a recent despatch from Lord Kitchener.

MR. BRODRICK

The error referred to was purely clerical, and was unfortunately not noticed before the copies of the telegram were despatched to the Press.
