§ MR. DILLON (Mayo, E.)I wish to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, Whether he is aware that during the evictions now going on in Wexford, on the Brooke estate, a house was burned to the ground on yesterday, before the Sheriff had taken possession of it; and whether the bailiff who burned that house on the previous day was deliberately proceeding to throw the women from the top window of a house until the police rushed in and rescued the women?
§ THE CHIEF SECRETARY (Mr. A. J. BALFOUR) (Manchester, E.)No, Sir; I have no information at all on the subject. If the hon. Member will put down the Question on the Paper I will answer it to-morrow.
