HC Deb 04 May 1893 vol 12 c67
MR. DANE

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he is aware that a large mob paraded the town of Clonmel on the night of Saturday, the 22nd March, and stoned the houses of Protestants who had not illuminated their windows in honour of the Second Reading of the Government of Ireland Bill; has any person been apprehended; and will the Irish Government take steps to prevent a recurrence of such a state of things?

*MR. J. MORLEY

The account is decidedly exaggerated. Stones were thrown on the 22nd April at the windows of the house of one person only, breaking three panes of glass. There were many other houses not illuminated, but this was the only one that suffered any damage. No one has been made amenable.
