§ MR. T. P. O'CONNORasked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, If he is making himself acquainted with the evictions now proceeding in Ireland, and with the circumstances attending each?
§ MR. W. E. FORSTERI am glad to be able to state that I am watching the evictions with great care.
§ MR. T. P. O'CONNORHaving heard that, I beg to give Notice I shall ask the right hon. Gentleman the following Questions on Thursday:—Whether he is aware that during the service of some processes on Tuesday, 22nd instant, on the property of Lord Oranmore and Browne, near Claremorris, a man named O'Brady, who was serving the processes, came to the house of a man named Pat Mullen, and when he arrived at Pat Mullen's house he found the man dead, and laid out in the usual way on the table, and whether, upon seeing this, he placed the process on the dead body of Patrick Mullen? I will also ask him, on the same day, Whether, during the service of ejectments on the Grattan-Bellew property, at Mount Bellew, an old man, who was so alarmed by the presence of the police and the Service of the processes, died suddenly on the occasion?
§ MR. W. E. FORSTERThe hon. Member knows that I could not get the information before Friday, and perhaps he will put the Questions on Monday.
§ MR. T. P. O'CONNORI have no objection to put them on Monday, and may put a few more on the Paper tonight with regard to evictions in other parts of the country.
