§ SIR THOMAS ESMONDE (Dublin Co., S.)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he is aware that at a recent meeting of the Dalkey Town Commissioners, the Chairman refused to allow a letter from the Limerick City Council to be read, which letter contained a copy of resolutions adopted in Limerick relative to the maltreatment of Mr. John Daly and others in English prisons; and what the reasons for his action were; and, if so, why the usual custom was not followed in this case at such Board of reading all communications?
§ MR. A. J. BALFOURI have no control over the Town Commissioners.
