A muzzling order on the press

IT was said at one Committee meeting of the Fermanagh Tuberculosis Committee that The Impartial Reporter should not have access to the books and documents of the Committee and that in future those papers be not produced.

Our reply is that in future, we will publish particulars of every meeting of this committee until it be dissolved, and each half year we will have the books inspected, and a full report of all extravagances and irregularities, should such take place, reported.
