§ MR. WILLIAM REDMOND (Clare, E.)I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for War whether he will inquire if Michael Farrell, of Scariff, when under age, recently enlisted in the 2nd Battalion Royal Irish Fusiliers, now serving in England, and that his discharge has been claimed by his father; and whether he will order his discharge.
§ *MR. WYNDHAMThe widowed mother of this soldier has asked for his discharge, and has asserted that the written consent to his enlistment which stands under her name was not really given by her. The facts are being investigated, and if Mrs. Farrell's assertions are correct her request will be granted.
