§ 15. Major Sir CHARLES HUNTERasked the Under-Secretary of State for War if he is aware that numerous complaints are still being received of articles of value being stolen from officers and men on the field or in transit to hospital, after they have been either killed or wounded; and whether he proposes to take any action in the matter?
§ Mr. MACPHERSONThe Commander-in-Chief has given his close personal attention to this matter, and I hope that we shall receive fewer complaints in future.
§ Major Sir C. HUNTERAs this matter is very unsatisfactory, I beg to give notice that I shall draw attention to it on the Adjournment of the House on Friday.
