HC Deb 25 July 1907 vol 179 cc121-2
MR. J. P. FARRELL (Longford, N.)

To ask the Secretary of State for War whether he is aware that James Martin Dunleany, who served for ten years in the Royal Horse Artillery and was discharged so far back as 1872, rejoined at the time of the war in South Africa and served for some three years at the base in the 9th Field Force, commanded by Major Jerome, where he received a fall, injuring the spine of his back, from which he is now permanently incapacitated; and whether, having regard to all the facts, he will now direct that either a pension or some bulk sum be paid to this man to help to maintain him in his helplessness.

(Answered by Mr. Secretary Haldane.) If the hon. Member will be good enough to furnish the War Office with full particulars of this man's service during the South African War (including the name of his regiment, regimental number, and dates of enlistment and discharge), the case shall be inquired into and the result communicated to him.
