HC Deb 20 February 1873 vol 214 c727
MR. W. JOHNSTON

asked the Chief Secretary for Ireland, Whether he has any objection to lay upon the Table the Correspondence between the officials in Belfast and Dublin Castle during the progress of the recent inquest at Holywood on the bodies of Isabella Ker and Jane Toner?

THE MARQUESS OF HARTINGTON,

in reply, said, he was sorry that he had not had an opportunity of taking the opinion of the Attorney General for Ireland upon this question, as that functionary had been occupied for several days past in conducting the Galway prosecutions. He hoped, however, to be able to inform the hon. Gentleman very shortly whether the Correspondence on the subject for which he asked, or any part of it, could be given. It was extremely voluminous, and he would be glad if the hon. Gentleman would inform him what portions of it he desired to have produced.

MR. W. JOHNSTON

said, he would repeat his Question on Monday.
