§ Mr. ANDERSONasked the Secretary of State for War whether his attention has been called to the case of Private Horace Wright, No. 7986, King's Own Yorkshire Light Infantry, who was called up at the outbreak of the War, went through the engagement at Mons, where he was severely wounded, and after being in hospital was discharged from the Army as unfit for any further service; whether he is aware that since he left the hospital toe has been called up for medical examinations at Rotherham, Sheffield, and elsewhere, though totally unfit to undergo such examination, and that he received papers from the military authorities calling him up for service and commanding him to report himself at Rotherham; whether he is aware that the journey from Dinnington to Rotherham involved a great strain on the man, and that he practically fainted whilst at Rotherham, and afterwards collapsed on his return home; and whether steps will be taken to render impossible any repetition of this?
§ Mr. FORSTERInquiry is being made and the hon. Member will be informed of the result in due course.
