HC Deb 18 May 1909 vol 5 c382W
Mr. EDWARD DUNN

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he has any official information to the effect that the captain and crew of the British ship "Carrie D. Knowles" have been for several years, and still are, confined in a Venezuelan prison; and, if so, what steps will be taken to obtain release and redress?

Sir E. GREY

No such official information has been received, but His Majesty's Minister at Caracas will be instructed to ascertain the truth of the report.
