§ Mr. BOLANDasked the Secretary to the Treasury whether his attention has been called to the application of Michael Riordan, of Baslican, Waterville, county Kerry, for an old age pension; and whether, in view of the tact that there are credible witnesses as to his being above the statutory age and that the parish register shows that he was married fifty-two years ago, he will state what further evidence, documentary or otherwise, is required to substantiate his claim?
§ Mr. HOBHOUSEThis case is under consideration by the Local Government Board, on appeal, and I can offer no advice in the matter.
