Tenants Restored
LIMERICK, Wednesday — Evicted tenants remain at the centre of Ireland’s land agitation, with nationalist representatives demanding that families removed during earlier rent disputes be restored to their former farms. The issue returned prominently to Westminster today during debate upon an Evicted Tenants Bill intended to assist those unable to regain their holdings. In County Limerick, memories of eviction continue to influence political loyalties, public meetings and attitudes towards farms subsequently occupied by others. Nationalists argue that no settlement of the land question can be considered honourable while households that sacrificed homes during organised resistance remain excluded from the soil they once worked.
