HC Deb 12 July 1881 vol 263 cc635-6
Mr. HEALY

asked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of. Ireland, Whether, with reference to the arrest of the three brothers Quinlan, aged sixteen, nineteen, and twenty, under the Coercion Act, the youngest of whom has since been released, he has made inquiries or received any report from the prison doctor at Limerick with reference to the failing health of the second youth (Patrick); and if it is still intended to keep the boy in prison?

MR. W. E. FORSTER

I have received the following Report from the surgeon of Limerick gaol in reference to this person:— I have most carefully examined the prisoner Patrick Quinlan. He has a slight cold, but there is nothing materially wrong. His pulse is normal, his temperature is 72 deg., and his weight is the same as it was when he came.
