HC Deb 12 August 1884 vol 292 c613
MR. T. P. O'CONNOR

said, that he had received a telegram from Cleator Moor, stating that Mr. Ennis, President of the National League, Cleator Moor, who was the principal witness, who stated that Constable Hamil urged the Orangemen to fire on the Nationalists, had been arrested. He had not time to communicate with the Home Secretary on the matter and give him private Notice of a Question; but he hoped the right hon. and learned Gentleman would make close inquiries into the circumstances attending the arrest.

SIR WILLIAM HARCOURT

If the hon. Member will forward to me any statement that he may have received, I will take care that inquiries are made.
