§ 6. Mr. KELLAWAYasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he has any evidence, other than that given at the German inquiry, of the circumstances under which Mr. Hadley was shot by a Prussian officer; and, if so, whether he will publish such evidence?
The UNDER-SECRETARY of STATE for FOREIGN AFFAIRS (Mr. Primrose)The answer to the first part of this question is in the negative.
§ Mr. KELLAWAYIs it intended to attempt to get a statement from Mr. Hadley's housekeeper, who was with him at the time?
Mr. PRIMROSEI think inquiries were made as to whether Mr. Hadley left any message for his relations when he was wounded. I think no reply has yet been received.
§ Mr. KELLAWAYIt is understood that a statement was made by the housekeeper, who was travelling with Mr. Hadley. She is an Englishwoman. Is it intended to get any information from her?
Mr. PRIMROSEI think that the evidence that has been submitted is sufficiently strong. I do not know whether the hon. Member desires any further inquiry?
§ Mr. KELLAWAYIf a statement can be got from the housekeeper will my hon. Friend endeavour to get it?
§ Mr. R. McNEILLDid the Government call the attention of the American Ambassador to this particular occurrence?
