§ MR. SEYMOUR ORMSBY-GOREI beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if the murderers of the late Mr. William Barnett, in the Argentine Republic, have yet been punished according to the laws of the Republic; and, if so, what penalty has been inflicted.
THE UNDER SECRETARY OF STATE FOR FOREIGN AFFAIRS (Lord GRANBORNE,) RochesterAs I informed my hon. friend on the 10th of September last, under the provisions of Argentine law, sentence on the murderers of Mr. Barnett should be delivered by the 28th December at the latest. But until that date there are no good grounds for protest.
