§ MR. DELANY (Queen's County, Ossory)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether the Estates Commissioners have received a protest from Mrs. Mary Anne Wall, Ballacolla, Queen's County, a tenant on the Caldbeck Estate, against being included amongst the tenants who signed agreements to purchase, and alleging her signature to an agreement to purchase, forwarded to the Estates Commissioners on behalf of the vendor, to be a forgery; and, if so, will he say what course he proposes taking in this matter.
§ THE SOLICITOR-GENERAL FOR IRELAND (Mr. JAMES CAMPBELL, Dublin University)No, Sir; but an agreement to purchase signed by James Wall has been lodged, and Mrs. Wall has sent in an objection, stating that she, and not James Wall, is the tenant. This objection will be inquired into before the sale is sanctioned.
