Mr. WILLIAM ABRAHAM

asked the Chief Secretary whether the attention of the Estates Commissioners has been directed to a statement made by Mr. Thomas Nagle, the present occupier of the holding formerly held by Mrs. Alice Nagle, at Ballinahallisk, on the Leader. estate, Kildorrery, county Cork, during the hearing of a case before the petty sessions court, Kildorrery, on the 129i instant, to the effect that he would be willing to give up the farm to Mrs. Alice Nagle on obtaining a holding of equivalent value elsewhere; and if the Commissioners will cause inquiries to be made into this matter, with a view to bring about the reinstatement of Mrs. Nagle and thus restore peace and harmony in the locality?

Mr. CHERRY

The Estates Commissioners have no knowledge of the statement referred to in the question, but the matter will be inquired into when the estate is being dealt with in its order of" priority under the Irish Land Act, 1903.
