HC Deb 03 August 1904 vol 139 c730
MR. SWIFT MACNEILL

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland how many students of the Queen's College, Cork, submitted themselves at the recent examinations for First and Second Arts in the Royal University; of these, how many are holders of prizes, exhibitions, or scholarships in the Queen's College; how many passed the examination; and how many obtained first class honours, second class honours, first class exhibitions, and second class exhibitions.

MR. WYNDHAM

Fourteen entered for the First Arts examination; of these ten passed, two of them obtaining second honours, and one of the latter was awarded a second class exhibition. Twelve entered for the Second Arts Examination; nine passed, including one who obtained first class honours and a second class exhibition. The official lists have not yet been communicated to the I college authorities by the Royal University and the information desired in the second query cannot at present be given.

MR. SWIFT MACNEILL

said that those who failed were the holders of prizes and exhibitions for the very subjects in which they failed.

Ma. WYNDHAM

I have no knowledge as to that.

MR. SWIFT MACNEILL

But I have.
