HC Deb 04 December 1902 vol 115 c1313
MR. WILLIAM ABRAHAM (Cork)

To ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether his attention has been called to the action of a sergeant and two police constables at Glenville, on Sunday, the 23rd of November, in demanding admission to an ordinary indoor meeting of the local branch of the United Irish League, and, on being refused, attempting to force an entrance, which, failing to effect, they then proceeded to fasten the door of the League room, thus preventing ingress and egress; and will the police be instructed to refrain from interference with the ordinary meetings of the United Irish League at Glenville.

(Answered by Mr. Wyndham.) The police did not seek admission to this meeting, nor did they fasten the door.
