HC Deb 28 January 1929 vol 224 c610W
Mr. DAY

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland whether he will give instructions to hand over to Mr. Oscar Slater the personal properties and articles belonging to this man which formed part of the productions at his trial in 1909, and which, at present, are in the custody of the clerk of justiciary?

Sir J. GILMOUR

I have no power to issue the instructions suggested. The proper course is for Mr. Slater to apply to the High Court.
