§ MR. BIGGARasked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, For what reason was the licence to carry arms by Mr. P. L. White revoked; is he aware that a gun taken from Mr. White was by Rigby, of Dublin, costing £31 10s. 0d.; and, on what grounds has the amount (£15 15s. 0d.) claimed by Mr. White as compensation not been paid by the Government?
§ MR. TREVELYANI must decline to state the circumstances which called for the revocation of Patrick White's arms' licence. I am informed that the gun is one of Rigby's; but I do not know what it cost. The Sub-Inspector offered Mr. White£2 compensation—that being what he considered the gun was worth. White refused to accept this offer, and the gun has been sent to the county store to be re-valued.
