HC Deb 02 August 1900 vol 87 c446
CAPTAIN DONELAN

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, with reference to the alleged case of boycotting at Tallow, county Waterford, if he can now say to whom, and in what manner such alleged boycotting is applied.

MR. G. W. BALFOUR

The person referred to in the question, has been, affected by boycotting in his trade as shopkeeper and merchant. The police have exercised and will continue to exercise the utmost vigilance in affording him every possible protection and assistance, and his position, I am informed, has considerably improved of late. It would, be contrary to practice to mention his name.

CAPTAIN DONELAN

Is boycotting to be the exclusive privilege of the Prim rose League?
