§ MR. MACVEAGHI beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he is aware that a Protestant farmer was on Friday week at Aughnacloy, County Tyrone, sent forward for trial to the Assizes on a charge of writing threatening letters to a Protestant clergyman; whether he has any official reports showing that town park lands in this neighbourhood are boycotted; and whether he can state the circumstances in connection with which the prosecution arose.
§ MR. WYNDHAMThe reply to the first inquiry is in the affirmative; to the second in the negative. I must decline to make any statement in answer to the last query, since the case, as the hon. Member himself points out, is sub judice.
