§ MR. THOMAS CORBETT () Down, N.I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he can state how many officials of the United Irish League hold grazing or evicted farms in Ireland.
§ THE CHIEF SECRETARY FOR IRELAND (Mr. WYNDHAM,) DoverThe latest information on this subject, carefully compiled last month, shows that there were then 184 officials of the organisation named holding grazing and evicted farms. These figures represent an increase of fifteen on the January returns. The expression "officials" includes presidents, and vice-presidents, secretaries, treasurers, and members of branch committees. There were last month thirty-five presidents and vice-presidents holding grazing farms, and five holding evicted farms; twenty-three secretaries holding grazing farms and three evicted farms; twenty-six treasurers holding grazing farms and three evicted farms and eighty-one committee members holding grazing farms and eight evicted farms—the totals of 165 and nineteen comparing with 146 and twenty-three in January of this year.
§ MR. TULLYHas there been no prosecution for boycotting against these hideous hypocrites, or their worthy leader, the Member for Cork?
