HC Deb 03 May 1804 vol 24 cc215-6
MR. DANE (Fermanagh, N.)

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, is he aware that the houses of two farmers named Lally and Gunning were fired into upon Friday night at Clondelara, in King's County; have any arrests been made; and have the police any evidence to show what was the motive for this outrage?

MR. J. MORLEY

The outrages referred to in the first paragraph took place on the night of the 25th of April; one person has been arrested and remanded in custody. The police believe they are in possession of the motive for the commission of the outrage; but, inasmuch as any statement in the matter would be calculated to frustrate the ends of justice, I cannot at present disclose the motive.
