§ MR. M'GOVERN (Cavan, W.)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he will state how many persons are or have been boycotted and intimidated in the rural district of Enniskillen No. 2, in the county of Cavan, which has been proclaimed under The Criminal Law and 816 Procedure (Ireland) Act, 1887, since the 1st January, 1902, and will he say in what townlands these people reside.
§ MR. WYNDHAMI must decline for obvious reasons to identify in the manner suggested any person who is, or has been, subjected to intimidation. An extra force of police was drafted into the rural district for the protection of a family exposed to intimidation. Persons in the district have also been advised to resist the collection of rent by force.
MR. M'GOYERNWhat is to prevent the right hon. Gentleman taking legal proceedings if there are any cases of boycotting?
§ [No answer was returned.]
