HC Deb 06 July 1915 vol 73 c176
1. Mr. GINNELL

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if he is now in a position to say whether the Archbishop of Lemberg, arrested by the Russians in territory invaded by them and imprisoned in a Russian fortress last September, still lives; if so, whether he can give any particulars of the prison treatment in the case; and whether he will suggest to the Russian Government to concede to the Archbishop of Lemberg treatment similar to that accorded by the Germans to the Archbishop of Malines for an identical offence?

True UNDER-SECRETARY of STATE for FOREIGN AFFAIRS (Lord Robert Cecil)

I have no reason to believe that Count Szeptycki is not being treated with all the consideration due to him.

Mr. GINNELL

Is the Noble Lord aware whether he is or is not?

Lord ROBERT CECIL

I am not personally aware. Naturally, I am only speaking from information.

Mr. KING

Is he in Siberia, Russia, or in Galicia?

Lord ROBERT CECIL

I should like notice of that question.
