§ MR. VINCENT KENNEDYTo ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland if he will say whether the Estates Commissioners have received an application for reinstatement, from Thomas Forster, of Aughaweely, Upper Ballinagh, county Cavan, whose father, John Foster, was evicted from his farm in the same townland about twenty years ago, held under the Reverend Francis Sclater; will he say if the Estates Commissioners have inquired into the claim; and when is the matter likely to be dealt with.
(Answered by Mr. Birrell.) The Estates Commissioners cannot trace the receipt from Thomas Foster of any application for reinstatement.
