HC Deb 28 July 1882 vol 273 c40
MR. REDMOND

asked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, Whether some months since a police but was erected in the town-land of Clorenfield, Pallasgreen, county Limerick, to protect emergency men who had taken possession of a farm from which the tenant had been evicted; whether the evicted tenant has now resumed possession and the emergency men have been withdrawn; and, whether, under these circumstances, the police will also be withdrawn, and the heavy expenses consequent on their presence removed from the townland?

MR. TREVELYAN

A police hut was erected about three months ago at the place mentioned in this Question in consequence of the murder of the emergency man Roche. His Excellency is at present considering whether or not the extra force may now safely be withdrawn.

MR. REDMOND

Was it erected under the circumstances mentioned in the Question, and are the facts stated correct?

MR. TREVELYAN

Quite correct, Sir.
