HC Deb 05 August 1898 vol 64 c268
MR. MACALEESE

I beg to ask the Secretary to the Treasury, as representing the Postmaster General, whether it was with the sanction of the Department that the postmaster at Caledon, county Tyrone, had an Orange arch spanning the street from the post office on 12th July, and, if not, what notice will the Department take of the incident?

MR. HANBURY

On the 12th of July last two Orange arches were erected in the main street of Caledon, county Tyrone, and it appears that one of these was attached to the end of the house in which the post office is situated. The arch was put up without the permission of the sub-postmaster. Without further inquiry, which there has been no time to make, it is not known how far the sub-postmaster could have prevented its erection.
