HC Deb 04 August 1902 vol 112 cc512-3
MR. THOMAS O'DONNELL (Kerry, W.)

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he will have inquiries made at the Dublin Post Office as to whether the receiver on the Rae Estate, Killorglin, sent a telegram to Doyle with directions to give it to the court inspector while valuing the estate.

THE CHIEF SECRETAEY FOR IRELAND (Mr. WYNDHAM,) Dover

No, Sir. No such inquiries will, or could, be made. On Thursday last I stated that the receiver denied having sent a telegram of this character to Doyle. He has again assured me on the point.

MR. THOMAS O'DONNELL

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he is aware that the receiver on the Rae Estate, Killorglin, Kerry, entered the lands of Mr. Leane, and gave possession to Mr. Doyle; and seeing that, as a result of this action, twelve summonses came on for hearing at the local court on Friday, 25th instant, will he say what action will be taken to deal with the receiver for his conduct with regard to the sale of this estate.

MR. WYXDHAM

The receiver did not give possession of any land to Doyle. All he did was to point out to the parties the position of the boundary between their lands, as settled by the court. The summonses issued have no connection with the land in dispute between Doyle and Leane.

MR. THOMAS O'DONNELL

Will the receiver substantiate this statement in a court of law, for I am perfectly well aware that he did the act with which I charge him 1

*MR. SPEAKER

Order, order! The hon. Member cannot enter on a controversy.
