HC Deb 15 August 1911 vol 29 c1889W
Mr. FFRENCH

asked the Postmaster-General whether he is aware that Peter Kavanagh, rural postman, Coolerin, was accidentally drowned in the River Portobello, at Campile, South Wexford, whilst learning to swim by the aid of water-wings; and as he was the sole support of a widowed mother and a little sister, will he see if he has any fund by which he can relieve the extreme distress of the widow and orphan?

Mr. HERBERT SAMUEL

I am not aware of the circumstances referred to by the hon. Member, but I am having inquiry made, and will acquaint him of the result.
