HC Deb 11 February 1884 vol 284 c438
MR. SEXTON

asked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, Whether Mr. R. W. Gamble, Q.C. who attended a recent Orange meeting, held in Dublin, in support of Lord Rossmore, and in condemation of the Executive for having superseded him in the Commission of the Peace, and who by his presence concurred in those proceedings, is the same person as Robert Wilson Gamble, Q.C. County Court Judge of Armagh and Louth; and whether, if so, the Government will consider whether it can be allowed that a person in a judicial position should publicly associate himself with approval of the conduct of a superseded magistrate and with attacks upon the Government?

MR. TREVELYAN

The Question has only been recently placed on the Paper, and I have not been able to ascertain myself, nor have been able to learn from Dublin, what meeting it is the Question refers to.

MR. SEXTON

The meeting on the 24th January in the Rotunda.

MR. TREVELYAN

Now that I am aware of the date I shall make inquiries.

MR. SEXTON

I shall repeat the Question on Thursday.
