§ MR. HAYDENI beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he is aware that on the County Leitrim estate of Mr. William R. La Touche, Bellevue, Wick-low, originating notices have been served as far back as October, 1887, which have not yet been heard by the Land Sub-Commission; whether he is aware that it is proposed to sell the estate under a mortgage; and, whether, in view of the fact that under such circumstances it is very undesirable that the rent should remain undecided, he is in a position to state the date for the next sitting of the Sub-Commission in Carrick-on-Shannon.
§ MR. A. J. BALFOURThe Land Commissioners report that there are only five cases outstanding on the estate referred to. They were all received subsequently to October, 1887. An application has been made to the Land Commission to purchase this estate, which is for sale in the Land Judge's Court, with a view to re-sale of the same to the tenants. Three of these cases, which are in the Poor Law Union of Bawnboy, will probably appear in the Ballyconnell October list. No arrangements have yet been made for a Sub-Commission sitting for the Union of Carrick-on-Shannon.
