§ 64. Mr. DENNISONasked the Home Secretary whether his attention has been drawn to the sentence at Milverton Police Court, Leamington, on a boy of 15 years named Erswell, to two months' imprisonment on a charge of breaking into a fog-man's hut on the Great Western Railway; whether he is aware that the boy has been in hospital for some time on the verge of sleepy sickness; and whether he will inquire into the possibility of remitting the sentence in view of all the circumstances?
§ Sir W. JOYNSON-HICKSAs soon as I heard of this case I called for full reports, but my inquiries are not yet completed.
