HC Deb 30 April 1877 vol 234 cc105-6
MR. O'SULLIVAN

asked the Postmaster General, If it is true that telegraph wires pass through the town of Bruree, in the county Limerick; and, if so, why it is that a telegraphic station has not yet been opened there, notwith- standing that it contains a money order office and is a petty sessions district, containing a population of over four thousand four hundred?

LORD JOHN MANNERS

It is true, Sir, that a telegraph wire passes through the town of Bruree; but no telegraph office had been opened there, as the amount of business likely to accrue would not warrant the expense.
