HC Deb 23 July 1907 vol 178 c1359
MR. FELL

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if he has any official information showing any connection between the capture and holding for ransom of Kaid Maclean and the payment by this Government of the ransom for Mr. Abbott and by the Belgian Government for the Belgian subject captured recently.

SIR EDWARD GREY

The Answer is in the negative. The trouble in this case is entirely between Raisuli and the Moorish Government.
