§ MAJOR ANSTRUTHER-GRAY (St. Andrews Burghs)I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War when the converted 15-pounder gun will be supplied to the Fife Territorial Field Artillery Battery.
§ MR. HALDANEOne gun was issued early in March to the 1st Highland Brigade of which one battery is supplied by the 1st Fife Artillery. This gun was sent to Forfar. Up to the present it has only boon possible to issue one gun per brigade, but further issues will be made as quickly as possible, and I hope that the Fife battery may receive a gun at an early date.
§ MAJOR ANSTRUTHER-GRAYWill it be before the training?
§ MR. HALDANEIf not I have no doubt other arrangements will be made. We are pushing the matter on.
§ MAJOR ANSTRUTHER-GRAYBut will they have the two guns before the training?
§ MR. HALDANEI hope so, but I do not want to give any undertaking.
