§ COLONEL JAMES McCALMONT (Antrim, E.)On behalf of the hon. Member for S. Antrim, I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord 1257 Lieutenant of Ireland whether his attention has been called to the evidence of Bernard Harte and John M'Dermottroe, at French Park, on 8th January, in which they stated that John Fitzgibbon, shopkeeper, Castlerea, had been handed some £21 as trustee of the Plan of Campaign on the De Freyne Estate; and whether it is proposed to take any action thereon.
§ MR. WYNDHAMMy attention has been called to this evidence, but I am not prepared to discuss the hypothetical admissibility and value of evidence in cases which are not before any Court.
