HC Deb 11 December 1888 vol 331 cc1768-77
MR. FLYNN (Cork, N.)

asked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, Whether, in the case of John and Daniel Scannell, John Cahill, and Humphrey Moynihan, who were arrested on November 21, and taken before Mr. McDermott, R. M., at Rathmore, County Kerry, there was a warrant issued for the arrest of all or any of them, or if there was a summons issued against any of them; under what circumstances they were arrested; and, if it is intended to proceed against them, and on what charge?

THE SOLICITOR GENERAL FOR IRELAND (Mr. MADDEN)(who replied) said (Dublin University)

All the men named in the Question were arrested under warrant. They were arrested for intimidation and assault. They will be prosecuted on that charge on the 13th of this month at Rathmore Petty Sessions.

THE LORD MAYOR OF DUBLIN (Mr. SEXTON) (Belfast, W.)

Was the warrant exhibited to any of these gentlemen when they were arrested?

MR. MADDEN

I have not the least reason to doubt that such was the case.

MR. FLYNN

Can the hon. and learned Gentleman inform us why a summons was not issued in the case instead of a warrant?

MR. MADDEN

No; I cannot.
