HC Deb 20 June 1904 vol 136 c496
MR. T. W. RUSSELL

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether he is aware that the tenants on the Atnell Estate, county Tyrone, came to an agreement in January last with the receiver (C. E. Fair) for the purchase of their holdings at Sheskinspull at a reduction of 25 per cent, off the existing rents; and if he can explain why Mr. Fair, acting for the Lord Chancellor, is now threatening legal proceedings to recover the rent due last November, and ignoring the agreement to which he was a consenting party.

MR. WYNDHAM

I shall be glad if the hon. Member will give further notice of this.

MR. T. W. RUSSELL

I will put it down for Thursday.
