HC Deb 09 September 1886 vol 308 cc1728-9
MR. JORDAN (Clare, W.)

asked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, If, at the meeting of the Board of Guardians at Kildysart, county Clare, last week, six eviction notices were read at the suit of Captain Hector Vandeleur, Colonel White, and MR. O'Dea; and, if, after lengthened discussion, a resolution was unanimously adopted, condemnatory of evictions as inimical to the interests of the landlords as well as of the tenants?

MR. M. J. KENNY (Tyrone, Mid)

asked, if the right hon. Gentleman was aware that the appointment of General Buller had the effect of stimulating eviction proceedings in the county Clare?

THE CHIEF SECRETARY (Sir MICHAEL HICKS-BEACH) (Bristol, W.)

, in reply, said, that was not at all within his knowledge. The facts were as stated in the Question of the hon. Member for West Clare.
