§ MR. SEXTON (for Mr. BIGGAR)asked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, Whether Mr. Patrick Gibbons has been in prison as a suspect since May last; whether he has been under medical treatment in Galway Gaol for the past six months; and, whether, under the circumstances, there is any reason why he should be further detained in prison?
§ MR. W. E. FORSTER, in reply, said, that Mr. Patrick Gibbons' name appeared on the doctor's books on the 18th October, and then his name did not appear until the 18th of March. He had been under medical treatment, as suffering from constipation, but was now in perfectly good health. His case was under the consideration of the Lord Lieutenant.
