HC Deb 31 March 1884 vol 286 c1163
MR. O'BRIEN

asked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland. Whether he is now in a position to announce the decision of the Lord Chancellor with respect to the conduct of Mr. Edward M. Archdale, J. P., on the occasion of the riot at Dromore, and of Mr. M'Clintock, J.P., County Grand Master, in reference to the Orange counter demonstration at Londonderry?

MR. TREVELYAN

This matter is still under the consideration of the Lord Chancellor.

MR. HEALY

asked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, If the Lord Chancellor has arrived at any conclusion in connection with the case of Robert M'Clintock, J. P., D. L., who signed the documents calling the Orangemen to assemble at Derry on the 17th March, and at Tark in January; and, if Mr. M'Clintock still retains the Commission of the Peace?

MR. TREVELYAN

Sir, the Lord Chancellor informs me that he has not had time to arrive at a decision in this case yet. Mr. M'Clintock is still in the Commission of the Peace.
