HC Deb 23 January 1913 vol 47 c639W
Sir WILLIAM BYLES

asked the Home Secretary whether any new evidence in relation to the Eastbourne murder has reached the Home Office casting doubt on the guilt of the prisoner who is condemned for the crime; and, if so, whether a postponement of execution will be ordered until any remaining doubt has been removed?

Mr. McKENNA

The answer to the first part of the question is in the negative.
