§ MR. BOLAND (Kerry, S.)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he can state under what circumstances Mrs. Ellen Mahony, a widow, whose holding was at Dreenaveerig, near Sneem, was evicted on 26th March.
§ MR. WYNDHAMShe refused to pay any rent since the death of her husband some years ago. She was not a tenant, and the ejectment was on title.
† See (4) Debates, cxvi. 1511.
§ MR. BOLANDI bog to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he is aware that on 26th March, Cornelius Moriarty was evicted from his house in the village of Sneem although he was willing to pay rent for the house, his tender being refused; and whether he can state how many families have been evicted from the thatched houses in Sneem during the last six years.
§ MR. WYNDHAMIn this case also the eviction was on title. Moriarty never paid rent, and, I am informed, made no offer to pay any. The reply to the concluding inquiry is, three.
