The lands referred to appear to be the lands of Newtown, comprising 106a. 1r. 21p., on the estate of Patrick Rath, which have been acquired by the Land Commission under the Land Act, 1923. The Commissioners do not propose to provide Robert Jones, Coolcots, with a parcel of land, but it is proposed to allot 15a. 1r. 25p. to Mrs. Mary Jones, of Coolcots, the owner of a small holding in the vicinity.
