HC Deb 20 May 1881 vol 261 cc942-3
MR. LEWIS

asked Mr. Attorney General for Ireland, Whether he is aware that at the end of January or beginning of February last, a sworn information of Mr. Noble, a shopkeeper of Randalstown, county Antrim, as to a conspiracy on the part of curtain persons to "Boy- cott" him, or, in other words, to ruin him in his business, was duly made; and, whether it is true that such information was laid before him, but that no proceedings were taken thereupon?

THE ATTORNEY GENERAL FOR IRELAND (Mr. Law)

No, Sir; I am not aware of any such information having been sworn. None such was ever laid before me.
