§ MR. MURPHY (Kerry, E.)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he can state the number of policemen employed in the protection of Mr. Morrogh Bernard at Faha, County Kerry, the yearly expense in salary and otherwise of these policemen to the public, and the yearly rents of the farms from which tenants have been evicted by Mr. Bernard in the district.
§ MR WYNDHAMTwo constables who, when not employed in protecting Mr. Bernard, are engaged on other police duties. Their emoluments amount to about £102 a year. I have no information on the last query.
§ MR. MURPHYBut is it not the fact that ten policemen are engaged in protecting this man, in an area not exceeding a square mile?
§ MR. WYNDHAMNot ten, but two:
§ MR. MURPHYWell, I am personally aware that ten are so engaged.
