HC Deb 03 August 1904 vol 139 cc723-4
MR. BLAKE (Longford, S.)

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether he can state the decision of the Estates Commissioners upon the application of Patrick Fox, of Ardnacraney, Moate, county Westmeath, to be restored to his farm on the King Harman Estate, in the townland of Cartron, barony of Shule, from which he was evicted in June, 1888, and which is now in the landlord's possession; whether he is aware that the King Harman (Newcastle) Estate, county Longford, part of which this farm is, is now being sold; and will he direct the Estates Commissioners to take Fox's application into their favourable consideration before the sale of this estate is sanctioned.

MR. WYNDHAM

No decision has yet been arrived at. The application is at present under consideration by the Commissioners.
