§ MR. BIGGARasked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, Whether it is a fact that Mr. Bell, a land valuer for the Land Court in county Cavan, recently in the County Court gave evidence as to the value of the holding of William Topham without once going on the land; and, what action does he propose to take in the matter?
§ MR. TREVELYANMr. Bell in-forms me that he was twice over the land referred to—the first time, some years ago, valuing for rateable purposes; and the second time, recently, to ascertain a fair rent, and that it is, therefore, not a fact that he gave evidence in the County Court without being fully satisfied as to the value of the holding.
