§ MR. O'HANLON (Cavan, E.)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he is aware that a man of the name of Hegan, who is a well-known emergency man, and whose income is increased by the number of convictions, served on the jury at the last Londonderry Assizes; and whether, under the circumstances, he is qualified to be on the list of jurors?
§ MR. A. J. BALFOURI have had no intimation either one way or the other on the subject of the hon. Member's question.
MR. MAC NEILL (Donegal, S.)Is the right hon. Gentleman aware that the jury in the first instance disagreed, and that it was then that Hegan, who is in the pay of the Government, was put upon the jury, after the counsel for the prisoners had exhausted all their challenges?
§ MR. A. J. BALFOURI cannot answer that question off-hand.
