Mr. Mulholland, 1876. 'The seconder of the Address in the Commons was Mr. Mulholland, M.P. for Downpatrick. He is the eldest son of the late Andrew Mulholland, of Spring Vale, in the county of Down, by Elizabeth, daughter of the late Thomas M'Donnell, of Belfast. He himself was born at Belfast in 1819; and married, in 1851, Frances Louisa, daughter of Hugh Lyle of Knockintown, Londonderry. Mr. Mulholland, who is a Conservative, was elected for Downpatrick at the general election of February, 1874. He has already shown marks of ability and good sense in the House, sufficient to justify the selection of him to fulfil the function he has just discharged'. From "Illustrated London News", 1876.
