COMPLAINT AGAINST TUE LORD ADVOCATE.
Lord A. HAMILTON presented a Petition from a
person, named Tuner, residing in Glasgow, complain-
ing of a great outrage on individual liberty committed
in Scotland, under the sanction of the Lord Advocate
of Scotland. The Noble Lord thought it necessary to
apprise the House, tkat acts done in the name of the
Lord Advocate were sot always done by hint, and
mere only ihargesble therefore on him. if he should
chase to recognise them. The Act complained of
was committed on the 9th of Aptil, 1920, when the
house of the Petitioner was entered at eleven o'clock
at night by an armed force to search for arms, as be
supposed, but, as they said, tinder the authority of a
warrant issued by the Lord Advocate. charging him
with high treason. He was not informed of this at
the moment, bet was hurried off to prison at that
hour of the night and placed under a military guard.
without knowing for what offence, nor even that there
was any charge against him. He (Lord A. Hansilton)
could state with confidence that this individual was in-
noeent, and be believed the Learned Lord now knew
very well that he was so ; for, after having been kept
in solitary confinement for fifteen days, he was al-
lowed to go at liberty on bail. and no charge was
ever made against him. All that the Petitioner, who
was in a respectable way of business at Glasgow,
wanted was redress and compensation for the injuries
done him, by a complete clearance of his character in

Mr. HUME wished 11) ask the Lord Advocate whe-
ther any depositions bad taken place in the cue of the
Petitioner.
The LORD ADVOCATE said it was not the prac-
tice, under the law of Scotland, to take depositions in
such cases.
Mr. HUME reinarlied, that the explanation just
given by the Learned Lord would not fail to point out
to the country the dreadful state in which the people
of Scotland were placed. It should seem that any
individual moving in a respectable sphere, on infor-
mation given by an enemy, without any regular depo-
sition being made, might be dragged to a dungeon.
lie had not thought till now that the liberties of the
people of Scotland were placed on a footing so dif-
ferent from that of the people of England. The Peti-
tion did not contain the misrepresentation snpposed.
The Petitioner had nut stated that lie had been con-
fined with culprits, and this statement was correct. He
defended other allegations contained in the Petition,
and condemned the arbitrary power exercised over in-
dividuals in Scotland, and considered the severities to
which the Petitioner had been exposed called for en-
quiry, and thought the House ought to adopt measures
to prevent a repetition of such treatment. If such a
•vsteui were acted upon, he might be dragged from his
home the next time he went to Scotland ; and if he
went on as he was now doing, he should be almost
a.raid of going there, lest he should fall, into the
clutches of the law others of Scetland.—(A laugh.)
Lord A. HAMI ON replied.
The LORD ADVOCATE explained, and vindicated
the law officers of Scotland, and the general administra-
tion of justice in that country.
Mr. Hl: ME explained, after which the Petition was
ordered to lie on the table.
On the quistion that it should be printed, some far•
they explanations were offered by Lord A. Irlasstta(x
and the Loan ADVOCATE of ScoTf.sistri.
The Petition was ordered to be printed.
Mr. HUTCIIINSON gave notice, that on Friday,
before the House went into the Committee of Supply,
he should take the opportunity of offering some re-
marks on that state of things on the Continent which
he thought materially affected the liberties of Europe.
ILCIIESTER JAII..
Mr. BENNE presented a Petition from Jelin
Wheeler, who described himself to be a friendless boy,
13 yeas of age, now confined in lichester jail. He
did not know whether the allegations contained in the
Petition were true, but the Petitioner complained of
great hardships sustained during his confinement, and
prayed the House to take ineasnres for preventing bins
from being punished for sending this Petition.
Mr. Alderman WOOD had no doubt of the truth of
the greater part of the statements contained in the Pe-
tition. Ile understood that an inquiry into the state
of Ilchester Jail had been recently set on foot by the
Sheriff and Magistrates of the county, and some of the
most extraordinary things had been discovered that
had ever been known in any prison. Ile understood
that it was proved that two pair of stocks were kept
at work in the prison, and that women were some-
times placed in them. Perhaps the Chancellor of the
Exchequer would take an opportunity of stating whe-
ther a Commission had been appointed by Dovernment
to inquire into the state of that prison, and tell the
nous • who the Commissioners mere. When such com-
plaints were made as had lately been against the Jailer
of I Iclieater Prison, they had commonly been answered
by speeches describing the Jailer to be one of the best
men on earth. In the present case, the member for
the comity, and the member for Taunton, had spoken
of !his Jailer as being a most immaculate person. The
member for the county had gone down to the Aube%
and would probalq now learn that which would
change his opinions as tot:se state of the jail. Hehopett
a Cutuniissi,in had been appointed, through whom the
House might obtain satisfactory information on this
subject.
Sir It. WILSON had male inquiries respecting 44
Prison of the late High Sheriff, who had informed him
that s ouie of the regulations %tete very severe, but these
hail been suspended during his con:innaace in case.
On his going out, it appeared that t bad again
been at ted upon. The treatment Mr. Hunt bad expe-
rienced under them, he regarded as a scandalous ag-
gra ation of the punishment of that gentleman. When-
ever he spoke of the case of that individual, be matt
not refrain from saying, that be thought the law had
been strained for his conviction, end that the punish-
ment awarded on that conviction was vindictive. aad
applied rather to the man than to the Mr itself. It
such were the case how much more necessary was it
that such aggravations of the punishment as be bad al-
Wel to should be spared.
