§ SECOND READING.
§ Order of the Day for the Second Reading read.
LORD SANDHURSTMy Lords, this is merely a Consolidation Bill which makes no material alteration in the law. It was brought in by Sir John Lubbock and passed through the House of Commons with no opposition, and I beg to move that your Lordships give it a Second Reading.
§ Moved, "That the Bill be now read 2a"—(The Lord Sandhurst.)
§ Motion agreed to; Bill read 2a accordingly, and committed to a Committee of the Whole House on Thursday next.
