§ MR. STANIER (Shropshire, Newport)I beg to ask the hon. Member for South Somerset, as representing the President of the Board of Agriculture, if the Board can now give a report as to the cause of death of the seven horses, the property of Mr. John Parton, of Bennett's Bank, Wellington, Salop, in July last; and, if so, will he supply the report.
§ SIR EDWARD STRACHEYFrom inquiry made there seems no doubt that the horses died from poisoning, but it has not been ascertained how they came in contact with the poisonous substance. I shall be happy to show the hon. Member a copy of our inspector's Report on the matter.
