The Land Commission have instituted proceedings for the acquisition of turbary at Slieveduff in the possession of Mrs. Hannah Sullivan. They have under consideration the question of the acquisition of David Sheehan's bog at Monlagonlane, representatives Michael Falvey's bog at Brickloon and Thomas Sheehan's bog at Killoluaig, but they are not at present in a position to state if or when they will institute acquisition proceedings in these cases. From the particulars supplied it has not been found possible to identify the turbary which is stated to be required by 12 applicants from Coomnakilla, Blackwater, but if the Deputy will furnish the name of the townland where the bog in question is situated, and the owner's name the case will be noted for inquiry.
