the government to remit any portion of the sentence
on Mr. Wallace, of the Angfo Celt, now undergoing
imprisonment for articles which appeared in his paper
on the Six-mile-bridge affair. It is addressed to the
secretary of the deputation by whom the memorial
in Mr. Wallace's favour was presented:

Dublin Castle, Aug 5, 1953.
Sir,—With reference to your letter of the 25th ult
transmitting a memorial on behalf of Zochariali Wallace,
a prisoner in the gaol of Cavan, 1 am directed by the Lord
Lieutenant to acquaint you that, as regards the offence fur
which Mr. Wallace was tried, and the sentence under
which he is imprisoned, his Excellency has not seen any-
thing, in his consideration of the case, which would justify
his interference, particularly as he is assured by the Lord
Chief Justice of the Court of Queen's Bench, that eviry
Circumstance of mitigation which could be urged on behalf
of the prisoner was heard by the court before pronouncing
sentence, and that it was the result of the unanimous judg-
ment of the court, after duly weighing and considering all
these circumstances. His Excellencywould regret that the

prisoner's health should suffer from- the elf( et;of his sen-
tence; but 9n reference to the proper authorities on that
subject, he finds no grounds to apprehend danger from
further confinement.

I sun, air, your obedient servant,
Taos. B. LAILCOM.
