§ MR. THOMAS F. SMYTH (Leitrim, S.)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland if the Estates Commissioners will reconsider the application for reinstatement which they received from Mrs. Bridget Moran, Drumnadubber, Drumsna, with reference to the farm in Minkill, on the Rowley estate, in county Leitrim, from which her late husband was evicted in 1884; and, in the event of her not being reinstated if compensation will be given to her.
§ MR. BIRRELLThe Estates Commissioners inform me that they have fully considered Mrs. Moran's application. The evicted farm is occupied by another person, and Mrs. Moran herself already holds a farm of nineteen acres. She declines to accept any land unless it be near her present holding, and in the circumstances the Commissioners consider that they cannot do anything further in the matter at present.
