HC Deb 02 April 1883 vol 277 c1179
MR. ARTHUR O'CONNOR

asked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, If he can state what are the grounds for the proclamation under the Crimes Act of the following districts, viz. Derrylea, Aughrim, Ballykelly, Mill-farm, Quinsborough, and Clogheen, in the parish of Lackagh, county Kildare, Clogheen and Coolnafeeragli, in the parish of Monasteroven, also in county Kildare, and Illard and Inchacooly, in the parish of Lea, in Queen's County; and, whether he will state if any, and what, outrages were committed in these townlands since the 24th November 1882, the date from which they are assessed?

MR. TREVELYAN

This district was proclaimed in consequence of the apprehension of outrage to the proprietors and their stewards, who have been threatened and systematically "Boycotted" for a long time, and have been under personal police protection since early in last year. Since the proclamation in November last one outrage has occurred—a malicious injury to property.
