== UK Parliamentary Papers 1903 ==

I am looking for the text, please, of a [[civil list]] award to [[Worthington George Smith]] within the 1903 UK [http://parlipapers.chadwyck.co.uk House of Commons Parliamentary Papers] {{subscription required}} volume XXXVI p.137.

I am trying to pin the award date down because ...

* James Dyer suggests the award occurred in 1902—see Smith's ODNB page in {{Cite ODNB|id= 61962 |title=Smith, Worthington George}}

* the award was not noted in the press until July 1903&mdash;see {{cite news |author=<!--Staff writer(s); no by-line.--> |title=Grant from the civil list |url=http://www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/search/results/1903-01-01/1903-12-31?basicsearch=worthington%20george%20smith&somesearch=worthington%20george%20smith&sortorder=score |newspaper= Luton Times & Advertiser|___location= |date=17 July 1903 |p=8|access-date= 13 June 2016}} {{Subscription or libraries}}

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

:[[User:Senra|Senra]], while I don't have access to the Parliamentary Papers, I note that there is no inconsistency between your two sources. The July 1903 announcement of the civil list was for pensions granted during the year ended March 31, 1903, which obviously would include most of 1902. ''See, e.g.,'' ''Leeds and Yorkshire Mercury'', July 10, 1903, p. 8 (British Newspaper Archive). [[User:John M Baker|John M Baker]] ([[User talk:John M Baker|talk]]) 23:25, 14 June 2016 (UTC)

::[[User:John M Baker|John M Baker]]: Thank you for the insight but I would still like to see the text of the Parliamentary Papers, if possible, to see if there is anything I missed. [[User:Senra|Senra]] ([[User talk:Senra|talk]]) 19:20, 15 June 2016 (UTC)

{{ping|Senra}} Is this still open? I'll try to help [[User:Doc Taxon|Doc Taxon]] ([[User talk:Doc Taxon|talk]]) 11:02, 17 July 2016 (UTC)

:{{ping|Doc Taxon}} Yes indeed. If you can help, please do. --[[User:Senra|Senra]] ([[User talk:Senra|talk]]) 23:07, 24 July 2016 (UTC)
