HC Deb 01 June 1874 vol 219 c749

Mr. O'DONNELL appeared at the Bar of this House, and claimed to make a statement to the House, before the Certificate and Report from the Judge selected pursuant to the Parliamentary Elections Act, for the trial of the Galway Borough Election Petition, was read to the House.

Whereupon Mr. SPEAKER informed Mr. O'DONNELL, that he had already received the Judge's Certificate and Report relative to the Election for the Borough of Galway, from which it appeared that the honourable Gentleman was disqualified from sitting in this House, and that he therefore was not entitled to be heard:—

And Mr. O'DONNELL withdrew accordingly.
