§ Mr. STEADMANasked the Chief Secretary for Ireland if he is aware that in 178W the case of the sale of the estate of Mary B. Falkiner and others the purchase price was £12,800, and that Mary B. Falkiner's share was one-fiftieth, namely, £253; will lie explain how this share becomes £683, and to whom the money has been paid; if he is aware that Thomas Butler's one-fifth share amounted to £2,560; and will he state to whom has that money, and the bonus thereon, been paid?
§ Mr. BIRRELLI am informed by the Registrar to the Land Judge that, according to the records of the court, Mary B. Falkiner was entitled to one-tenth of the property in question. After deducting one-tenth of the outgoings which were common to the whole estate, her share amounted to £674, of which £50 was retained in court to meet claims for Succession or Estate Duty, the balance being paid out to the mortgagee of her share on foot of the mortgage and costs. The net amount of Thomas Butler's share, after deducting one-fifth of the common outgoings, was £1,318, which appears to have been disposed of as follows: Redemption price of annuity payable to Mrs. M. Lawry and arrears, £871; costs, £88; Miss Tench, mortgagee of Mr. Butler's share, and her solicitor's costs, £389.
