§ MR F. MEEHAN (Leitrim, N.)To ask, the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether the Estates Commissioners had taken any action with a view of reinstating Peter D. Kelly, an evicted tenant on the West estate, Drumkeerin, County Leitrim; and, if not, whether they will soon do so.
(Answered by Mr. Birrell.) The Estates Commissioners received Peter Kelly's application for reinstatement on the 15th instant only, and, having regard to the large number of prior applications which have to be considered, they cannot say when they will be able to inquire into the case.
