§ MR. MORTONI beg to ask the First Commissioner of Works whether he can give the House any information with regard to the proposed restoration of the Royal Chapel, Holyrood, or whether the chapel will in any case be put in repair to preserve as much as possible of the old building.
§ THE FIRST COMMISSIONER OF WORKS (Mr. HARCOURT, Lancashire, Rossendale)I understand that the trustees under Lord Leven's will have declined to act in the matter of the Holyrood bequest, and the legacy therefore falls into the residue of the estate. I am glad to know that Mr. Lethaby, the architect employed by the trustees to examine the building, expressed his opinion that the structure has been most carefully and suitably repaired and preserved by the Office of Works.
