John Thomas Waller, of Castletown, to have his case considered by them with the view to his getting a portion of untenanted land in the county; whether he is aware that this man has two sons who work as agricultural labourers in the district and who are competent to work a farm; and whether the Estates Commissioners will consider his case with the object aforesaid?
§ Mr. BIRRELLThis application was received by the Estates Commissioners after the date mentioned in the Evicted Tenants Act, and cannot, therefore, be dealt with under that Act.
