§ MR. DILLON (Mayo, E.)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether Mr. M'Crea, who now holds the appointment 69 of Coroner for North Tyrone, is also a Sub-Commissioner under the Land Act; and whether Mr. M'Crea for three-and-a half years has been habitually absent from his district, and has presided at only one inquest?
§ MR. A. J. BALFOURThe reply to the inquiry in the first paragraph is in the affirmative. By a personal arrangement inquests in Mr. M'Crea's district have been held by the Coroner for Mid Tyrone since August, 1887, when Mr. M'Crea was appointed an Assistant Land Commissioner.
