§ MR. JAMES GILHOOLY (Cork Co., W.)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland (1) whether an absolute order has been made for the sale of the estate of Robert Hedges Eyre White, situated near Bantry, county Cork; and (2) if so, whether he can state approximately when the sale will take place?
§ MR. GERALD BALFOURThe reply to the first inquiry is in the affirmative. The rental is in progress of settlement, but it would not be possible, at present, to state even approximately the date at which the sale will take place.
