HC Deb 20 June 1899 vol 73 cc72-3
MR. FLAVIN

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he is aware that it was sworn at the Sneem Petty Sessions Court a short time ago that James Cahillane, who is a bailiff or emergency man residing at Lomanagh, near Sneem, in the County of Kerry, threatened to use firearms on one of Her Majesty's subjects; whether Cahillane has a gun licence, and does his licence permit him to keep and carry firearms; and what action will be taken by the authorities.

MR. G. W. BALFOUR

I am informed that there is no foundation whatever for the statement in the first paragraph. The individual referred to has a licence to carry a revolver.
