§ 6. Mr. O'LEARYasked the Chief Secretary for Ireland whether he is aware that David N. Gallagher, an evicted tenant, residing at Kilcoe, Aughadown, Skibbereen, has been waiting for reinstatement since 1904 and has been disappointed by the failure of the Estates Commissioners to carry out their promises to him; why the Estates Commissioners do not give this man a holding out of the untenanted land in their occupation; and whether they are now prepared to do anything for him?
§ Mr. DUKEIn 1904 an application was received from David Gallagher for reinstatement in a holding formerly occupied by his father; but the Estates Commissioners were unable to reinstate the applicant, as the holding was in the possession of another tenant, who did not desire to relinquish it. The Commissioners have noted Gallagher's name for consideration in the allotment of untenanted land; but at present they have no lands available in county Cork.
