HC Deb 26 March 1903 vol 120 c301
MR. KEIR HARDIE (Merthyr Tydvil)

I beg to ask the Secretary to the Admiralty whether an application has been received from the parents of a boy named Casey, engaged as a second-class stoker on H.M.S. "Vivid," praying for his discharge on the plea that he was under age when he enlisted; and, if so, will he state whether it is intended to discharge this boy.

THE SECRETARY TO THE ADMIRALTY (MR. ARNOLD-FORSTER,) Belfast, W.

I have been unable to trace any such application, but if the hon. Member will send me the full details of the case it shall be enquired into.
