§ THE MARQUESS OF LANSDOWNEsaid, he wished to correct an error into which he fell in his speech on the second reading of the Regimental Exchanges Bill. In quoting from the Report of the Evidence taken by the Committee presided over by his noble Friend (the Duke of Somerset), he referred to a statement that seven out of eight officers of the 43rd Regiment who were highly connected had returned from India within 18 months after the regiment landed there. He gave that statement on the authority of the late Lord Clyde, but he had since ascertained that it was contained in the evidence given to the Committee by Mr. Higgins. He had made extracts from the evidence of both witnesses, and he must apologize to their Lordships for having attributed to the one what had been said by the other.
