§ COLONEL WARINGI beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland is he aware that on Sunday night, the 16th July, the house of a farmer named Gildea, near Kilfenora, County Clare, was fired into, the supposed motive being that he is a friend of a man who took an evicted farm; and, if so, has the case been recorded as one of intimidation?
MR. J. MORLEYIt is alleged by the individual named in the question that two shots were fired at his house on the night mentioned. The police are not satisfied as to the genuineness of the alleged outrage, and, pending the result of further inquiries in the matter, the Inspector General will not, he tells me, record the case under any heading in the Returns.
