HC Deb 25 October 1909 vol 12 c731
Mr. WILLIAM ABRAHAM (Cork) (for Mr. Kilbride)

asked whether the Estates Commissioners received an application for reinstatement from the representatives of the late John Hannon, who was evicted from his farm at Lughill, Monasterevan, county Kildare, in September, 1891, by Mrs. Fraser Johnston; whether he is aware that the new tenant, Mrs. Harriet Waters, died last October, and that the farm is now occupied by a caretaker; and can he say what steps are being taken to reinstate the representatives of the evicted tenant or provide them with an equivalent holding?

Mr. BIRRELL

Miss Kathleen Hannon, who lives in Londonderry, has applied to the Estates Commissioners for reinstatement in a farm in Kildare from which, according to her statement, her father was evicted in 1891, owing 5½ years' rent. The Commissioners received the application after the date mentioned in the Evicted Tenants Act and have not inquired into it.
