HC Deb 24 July 1890 vol 347 c735
MR. FINUCANE (Limerick, E.)

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether Mrs. Mullally, who was evicted from her holding on the Modeshill property, Mullinahone, County Tipperary, about three years ago, was re-instated about four months since at a rent fixed by arbitration; whether her house has been and is occupied by policemen since her eviction, who have refused to leave though often asked by Mr. Hartford, the agent; whether he is aware that Mrs. Mullally's farm is about three miles from her present residence, to which she is obliged to bring the milk of her dairy cattle twice a day; and whether, as the object of the Government in sending policemen to the Modeshill Estate was to protect the emergency men who were herding 30 evicted farms to which all the former tenants have been restored, the policemen will now be ordered to leave immediately?

MR. A. J. BALFOUR

I must ask the hon. Member to defer the question until I have obtained the information that will enable me to answer it.
