HL Deb 27 June 1865 vol 180 c859
THE MARQUESS OF WESTMEATH

asked Her Majesty's Government, Whether it has authorized a Curtain to be drawn over the Ten Commandments in the Chapel of the Liverpool Borough Prison, so as completely to obscure them from Observation while the Romish so-called Altar is therein displayed and the Roman Priest performs his services therein?

EARL GRANVILLE

said, that this was a matter for the justices of Liverpool to decide. No authority had been asked for and none had been given by the Home Office in the matter.
