§ MR. J. P. FARRELLI beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he is aware that the proceedings for sale of the Annaly estate, in county Longford, are not yet completed, notwithstanding the frequent promises of the legal agent having carriage of sale; and whether anything can be done to remove the deadlock which seems to have arisen in that matter?
§ MR. GERALD BALFOURThe Registrar of the Land Judge's Court states that the proposal of the Land Commission to purchase this estate came before the court on Tuesday last, and was adjourned until the 13th instant, when, I understand, there is every probability the matter will be closed.
