HC Deb 11 May 1903 vol 122 c291
MR. JOHN ELLIS (Nottinghamshire, Rushcliffe)

To ask the President of the Local Government Board whether his attention has been called to the inquest on Michael Sadler, who died in the Wandsworth Infirmary on 20th April, at which evidence was given of violence on the part of the male attendants, and it was found by the jury that Sadler's death was hastened by undue violence; and whether further inquiry into the matter will be made.

(Answered by Mr. Walter Long.) My attention has been called to the inquest referred to, and I have applied to the coroner for a copy of the depositions. I am now in communication with the Guardians on the subject, and on the receipt of their reply and the depositions I shall consider what further action I shall take in the matter.
