§ MR. JAMES O'KELLY (Roscommon, N.)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he is aware that agreements for the purchase of their holdings were entered into by the tenants of Miss French, of Riversdale, county of Roscommon, so far back as the year 1892, and have not yet been carried out; and, if so, what is the cause of the delay?
§ THE CHIEF SECRETARY FOR IRELAND (Mr. GERALD BALFOUR, Leeds, Central)The Land Commissioners are unable to trace the matter referred to in the Question, as it does not appear that any purchase agreements have been lodged in a case where Miss French is owner.
