§ Mr. WILLIAM ABRAHAMasked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether the Estates Commissioners have purchased or are in negotiation for the purchase of the Lysaght estate, near Mallow, county Cork, for the purpose 981W of providing allotments of land for evicted tenants and others; and whether the Commissioners will take into consideration the claims for reinstatement of the personal representatives of Mrs. Katharine Hennessy, who was evicted from the holding of Kilmacoom on the estate in 1879, and has since died?
§ Mr. BIRRELLThe Estates Commissioners inform me that proceedings are pending for the acquirement of portion of the lands of Ballybrack on the Lysaght estate under the Evicted Tenants Act. The Commissioners are unable to trace the lodgment of any application for reinstatement to the holding at Kilmacoom from any person claiming as representative of Mrs. K. Hennessy.
