§ MR. JOSEPH DEVLIN (Kilkenny, N.)To ask the Postmaster-General whether he has received a memorial from Mr. Richard Meagher, junior, of Ratmacan, Tullaroan, county Kilkenny, recently; and whether any reply has been forwarded to the same; and, if not, whether he would state the reason why.
(Answered by Lord Stanley.) A memorial relating to the postal arrangements of Tullaroan was received in the Dublin Post Office a few weeks ago. This is perhaps the memorial referred to by the hon. Member, though the name of the gentleman by whom it was forwarded does not correspond with that mentioned in the Question. The inquiries on the subject are not yet complete. The surveyor has been called upon for an early report, and I hope soon to be in a position to reply to the memorial.
