§ MR. J. PHILLIPS (Longford, S.)To ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland if he can say in what manner the farms of J. Farrell and J. Heslan, evicted tenants on the King-Harman estate, which is in Chancery, in the townland of Lisnagh, in the County of Longford, were managed during the past year, and what profit was made on them; and when the evicted tenants are likely to be restored.
(Answered by Mr. Birrell.) The estate in question is under the control of the Chancery Division of the High Court. I am informed that during the past year the farms of the two evicted tenants named were let by the receiver for grazing at £10 per annum. It is understood that these two evicted tenants are to be restored to their holdings upon the sale of the estate generally. It is not intended to deal with the property piecemeal.
