§ MR. SAMUEL YOUNG (Cavan, E.)To ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lientenant of Ireland whether he is aware that the tenants on Sir Robert Hudson's estate, county Cavan, have signed agreements for the purchase of their holdings, and that a number of tenants who bad turbary rights also signed agreements surrendering these rights in consideration of receiving a further reduction in their instalments; whether he is aware that the landlord now proposes to give all the good turbary to those tenants who have surrendered their rights and nothing but after-bog to the others, who are unwilling under the conditions to purchase; and whether, in view of these facts, the Estates Commissioners are prepared to advance money for the purchase of the estate.
§ (Answered by Mr. Birrell.) The Estates Commissioners inform me that since notice of this Question was given they have learnt that a satisfactory agreement as regards turbary has been arrived at between the vendor and the purchasing tenants.
