§ MR. THOMAS O'DONNELL (Kerry, W.)To ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether any steps have been taken to reinstate Mr. Daniel Murphy in his farm at Dromin, Killorglin, Kerry; whether the Estates Commissioners have had any communication with the occupier, Mr. Thomas Wharton, with regard to his giving up the place to the owner; and whether steps will be immediately taken to transfer the occupier from this farm to some other district.
§ (Answered by Mr. Bryce.) The Estates Commissioners inform me that an application for reinstatement in his former holding has been lodged by Mr. Daniel Murphy, who states that the holding in question has been in the occupation of Mr. Roger Wharton since 1898. The owner has not up to the present instituted any proceedings for the sale of the estate, and the Commissioners have not yet had an opportunity of making any inquiries into the matter.
