§ MR. O'KELLY (Roscommon, N.) (for Mr. CAREW) (Kildare, N.)asked the Postmaster General, with reference to 1361 the execution recently levied on Mr. Devers, the newly appointed Postmaster at Carndonagh, Whether he is aware of the considerable time during which the fi. fu. remained in the hands of the Sheriff's bailiffs, and what Return was made by the Sheriff on the fi. fa.;whether he is aware that the Sheriff's bailiffs endeavoured to effect a seizure on frequent occasions, but that Devers had on all occasions, except one, succeeded in closing the door before the bailiffs effected an entrance, and that on this exceptional occasion, owing to the resistance of Devers, the bailiffs were obliged to retire; and whether, under the circumstances, he will approve of the appointment of Devers as Postmaster?
§ THE POSTMASTER GENERAL (Mr. RAIKES) (Cambridge University)The inquiries on the subject which I promised not yet being complete, I have nothing to add to-day to what I stated when the Question was asked on the 26th ultimo.
