HC Deb 18 November 1908 vol 196 c1225
MR. LONSDALE

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether he has received particulars of an extensive cattle-drive at Towerhill, Claremorris, on the 7th instant; how many farms were raided; and whether any persons were arrested or prosecuted.

THE CHIEF SECRETARY FOR IRELAND (Mr. BIRRELL,) Bristol, N.

This appears to be the cattle drive about which the hon. and gallant Member for East Down asked a Question yesterday. I would refer the hon. Member to my reply. I understand that the cattle were driven off three farms.
