§ MR. DANEI beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, whether he has received a memorial from the tenantry upon the Ely estate, county Fermanagh, praying that provision may be made in the Irish Land Bill for sale to tenants of Irish encumbered estates at present under the control of the English Court of Chancery; and, whether he proposes dealing with the subject?
§ MR. GERALD BALFOURI have received the memorial referred to, and will look into the question, though at present I do not think it possible to include in the Land Bill a provision of the nature suggested.
