§ MR. DELANY (Queen's County, Ossory)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether negotiations for the sale of the Edge Estate, Queen's County, are proceeding before the Land Commission; and, if so, whether he can state what steps are being taken to restore to his farm or otherwise provide for Thomas M'Cormack, son of John M'Cormack, who was evicted off the property in 1883 for non-payment of rent.
The hon. Member complained of the striking out of the word "impossible" before "rent" in the last line.
§ * MR. SPEAKERThe correction is a very proper one to make.
§ MR. WYNDHAMNo application has been made to the Estates Commissioners in respect of the sale of this estate. An application for reinstatement has been received on behalf of the evicted tenant named, and will be considered.
