§ Mr. DELANYasked upon what grounds the claim of Robert Mitchell to the evicted farm of Castlefleming, Stubber estate, Queen's County, representative of E. S.

921W
§ Mr. BIRRELLThe Estates Commissioners received an application from E. S. Mitchell, since deceased, for reinstatement in a holding formerly occupied by him at Castlefleming on the Hamilton Stubber Estate, Queen's County, and, after inquiry and consideration, decided to take no action in the matter. Robert Mitchell claims as representative of E. S. Mitchell, but the Commissioners see no reason to alter their decision in the matter. The portion of the lands of Castlefleming acquired by the Commissioners has been divided between a small holder on the estate and an evicted tenant who resides in Roscrea, in the vicinity of the estate.
§ Mr. O'SHAUGHNESSYasked the Chief Secretary for Ireland whether the Estates Commissioners have received an application for portion of untenanted lands in the county of Limerick from Joseph and John Hayes, of Ballycasey, Kildimo, county Limerick; and, if so, whether, as these applicants are the sons of an evicted tenant, the Estates Commissioners will give their application their favourable consideration?
§ Mr. BIRRELLThe Estates Commissioners cannot from the particulars given trace the receipt of any application from Joseph and John Hayes.
