HC Deb 09 March 1916 vol 80 c1719
104. Mr. GINNELL

asked the Under-Secretary of State for War whether he has yet obtained an explanation of the conduct of the military in allowing Patrick Sullivan, a soldier of the Royal Irish Fusiliers, one of two brothers both wounded in action, to die of neglect in the workhouse at Weymouth and be buried in a pauper's grave; why Sullivan's appeal for other treatment was disregarded; and why no inquest was held?

Mr. TENNANT

I am in correspondence with the hon. Member with regard to this question, and I am not yet in a position to furnish him with a reply. I hope he received my letter.
