HC Deb 01 December 1882 vol 275 cc497-8
MR. TOTTENHAM

asked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, Whether there was any truth in the telegram that had appeared to-day that another murder had been committed in County Kerry?

MR. TREVELYAN

I think the hon. Member refers to an unhappy affair which occurred near Castleisland. I have a telegram which states that an agent was walking along a road accompanied by two policemen, when they were fired at, and one of the policemen was severely wounded in the neck. The other policeman fired at the assailant in the dark, and it is not known whether the shot took effect. The agent was not injured.
