HC Deb 22 November 1926 vol 200 c43W
Sir COOPER RAWSON

asked the Home Secretary whether he has received an application complaining of an alleged miscarriage of justice in the case of Mrs. Matilda Lavinia Stanley, of Brighton, and of her late husband, the Rev. William Herbert Stanley, and praying for an investigation into the facts; and whether he will accede to the request?

Sir W. JOYNSON-HICKS

I have received three representations from Mrs. Stanley, who in 1906 was convicted of criminal libel, and other representations had been received by my predecessors. The case has been fully gone into on previous occasions, and there is no reason for any further investigation.
