Restraining John Aiflabie Estate Inquiry Debated in Commons
March 14 and 15 discussions in the House cover a bill restraining John Aiflabie from leaving the realm and for discovering his estate. The Committee of Secrecy report on the Earl of Sunderland is read in part while MPs argue over adjournment and witness examinations. The South Sea stock transfer by Robert Knight to Sunderland triggers a heated late debate.
