§ MR. JOHNSTONasked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, Whether he is aware that no men are employed by the Orange Emergency Committee in the county Cavan; and, from whom he had the information that two Emergency men had been arrested at Cornafane, in that county?
THE CHIEF SECRETARY (Mr. JOHN MORLEY)It is possible that too wide an interpretation is generally given to the term "Emergency man." As a matter of fact, I find that the two men arrested on the occasion referred to were employés of the Land Corporation Society. Neither in the Question that was put to me, nor in the answer to which the present Question refers, was the word "Orange" introduced.
