HC Deb 01 March 1906 vol 152 cc1270-1
MR. O'DOWD (Sligo, S.)

To ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether he is aware that the grazing farm of Armagheur, comprising a portion of the Miss Nicholson estate, situate at Castlebawldin, near River-town, in the county of Sligo, and at present in the Equity Court, has recently been sold to a man named James Murrin; and will he say whether the Estates Commissioners will consider the advisability of having this ranch utilized for the enlargement of the small uneconomic holdings surrounding him.

(Answered by Mr. Bryce). The Estates Commissioners inform me that they are not aware of the matters referred to in the Question. No application or request in respect of the estate of Miss Nicholson has been made to them, and no proceedings in respect of the sale of this estate are pending before them.
