CAHIRDUGGAN – Lewis’ Topographical Dictionary 1837 – CAHIRDUGGAN, a parish, in the baronyof FERMOY, county of CORK, and province of MUNSTER, 3 miles (S.W) from Doneraile; containing 1801 inhabitants. This parish is situated on the river Awbeg, by which it is bounded on the north, and on the mail coach road from Mallow to Buttevant and Charleville: it comprises 6148 statute acres, as applotted under the tithe act, and valued at £5216 per annum. The land, in general of excellent quality, is chiefly under tillage, with some good pasture, and the system of agriculture is improving. At Drumcree there is a common of about 262 acres, tithe free, which is used by the inhabitants for grazing cattle. The parish contains abundance of lime stone, which is extensively worked for building and for agricultural purposes. Culm has been found in the lands of Baltindaniel, but is not worked at present. There is a patent for holding several fairs, but the only one held is that of Cahirmee, on July 12th, which is one of the largest horse fairs in the South of Ireland. The principal seats are Cloheen, the residence of Lieut. Col. A. Hill; Hazlewood, of W Lysaght, Esq.; Springfort, of J. Foot, Esq.; Elmvale, of J. Duggan, Esq.; Danville, of W. Nash, Esq.; and Monte Video, of H. D. Spratt, Esq. It is a perpetual curacy, in the diocese of Cloyne, and forms part of the union of Buttevant; the rectory is impropriate in C. D. O. Jephson, Esq., and Major Crone. The tithes amount to £340. 11., the whole payable to the impropriators, who allow a stipend for the discharge of the clerical duties: the tithes of five townlands in the eastern part of the parish, comprising 1058 acres, are in dispute between the impropriators, but are at present payable to the lessee of Mr. Jephson. The church, which is in ruins, was built on its present site in the reign of Charles II. In 1717 the roof was taken off and service discontinued, by order of Bishop Crewe, and the parish was united to Doneraile, from which it was separated in 1758, and continued to be a distinct benefice till 1806, when it was united to Buttevant. In the R. C. divisions it is one of the three that form the union or district of Doneraile. Several Danish raths are found here in excellent preservation and generally sur rounded by a single rampart and ditch. The site of an ancient castle, formerly belonging to the Roches, is still visible about a mile from Doneraile. Near it stood a considerable village, which tradition says was nearly depopulated by a plague and subsequently deserted.

DONERAILE – Lewis’ Topographical Dictionary 1837 – DONERAILE, a market and post-town, and a parish (formerly a parliamentary borough), in the barony of FERMOY, county of CORK, and province of MUNSTER, 21 miles (N. by W) from Cork, and 132 (S.W) from Dublin; containing 6940 inhabitants, of which number, 2652 are in the town. Sir William St. Leger, who was Lord-President of Munster in the reign of Chas. I., held his court here. He purchased the Doneraile estate of Sir Walter Welmond and John Spenser (son of the poet), which purchase was subsequently confirmed by the crown, and the estate created a manor. In the civil war of 1641, Sir William, both as a statesman and soldier, rendered important services; but his infirm health did not enable him long to sustain the hardships to which he was then exposed, and he died in the following year. In 1645, the Irish under Lord Castlehaven took the castle of Doneraile, and burned the greater part of the town.

It is pleasantly situated on the river Awbeg (the “Gentle Mulla” of Spenser), which is here crossed by a neat stone bridge of 3 arches, and on the mail road from Mallow to Mitchelstown; it consists chiefly of one wide main street, and a smaller one called Buttevant lane, and contains about 390 houses. The vicinity is extremely pleasing, the roads being shaded by fine fir and other trees, and the country studded with gentlemen’s seats. By a charter of the 15th of Chas. I. (1639), consti tuting Sir William St. Leger lord of the manor, power was given to the seneschal to hold a court leet and court baron, with jurisdiction in personal actions to the amount of 40s.; also a market on Thursday, and two fairs annually on the feast of St. Magdalene and All Souls. The market is, however, now held on Saturday for provisions, but on account of its proximity to Mallow, it is but thinly attended; the fairs, which are held on the 12th of Aug. and Nov., have also much declined; and although the seneschal’s court is still occasionally held, with the view of preserving the right, no business has been transacted in it for the last seven years. The market and courthouse, a convenient building, is situated in the main street. Near the bridge is the extensive flour-mill of Messrs. Creagh & Stawell, and at Park is that of Messrs. Norcott & Co. This is a chief constabulary police station, and a small military force is also quartered in the town. By a second charter, granted in the 31st of Chas. II. (1660), the borough was empowered to return two members to the Irish parliament, and the elective franchise was vested in the freeholders made by the lord of the manor; but no corporation was created: the seneschal was the returning officer. From this period until the Union it continued to send two burgesses to parliament, when it was disfranchised and the compensation of £15,000 paid to the heirs of Hayes, Viscount Doneraile. His descendant, Hayes St. Leger, the third and present Viscount Doneraile, is lord of the manor, which extends over part of this parish and that of Templeroan.

The parish, which extends to the Galtee mountains, on the confines of the county of Limerick, and includes the ancient subdivisions of Rossagh and Kilcoleman, contains 20,797 statute acres, as applot ted under the tithe act, and valued at £9367 per annum. About 8800 acres are coarse mountain pasture: the arable land is in general good, and the state of agriculture is gradually improving, a considerable por tion of the land being in the occupation of the resident gentry Lime stone abounds, and some good specimens of marble are occasionally obtained. Among the numerous seats, Doneraile Park, that of Viscount Doneraile, is distinguished for its extent and beauty: it is intersected by the river Awbeg, over which, and within the demesne are several neat stone and rustic bridges. The mansion is a handsome and substantial building, to which has been added, within the last few years, a large conservatory stored with the choicest plants; it is situated on an eminence gently sloping to the winding vale of the Awbeg. The other seats are Creagh Castle, that of G. W. B. Creagh, Esq.; Laurentinum, of the same family; Kilbrack, of Mrs. Stawell; Byblox, of Major Crone; all of which are on the Awbeg: and in the parish are also Donnybrook, the seat of W Hill, Esq., Old Court, of J. Stawell, Esq.; Carker House, of N. G. Evans, Esq.; Lissa, of Capt. Croker; Her mitage, of J. Norcott, ESq.; Crobeg, of G. Stawell, Esq Cromore, of R. Campion, Esq.; Park House, of A. Norcott, Esq.; Cottage, of J. Norcott, Esq., M. D.; Stream hill, of G. Crofts, Esq.; Kilbrack Cottage, of the Very Rev. P. Sheehan, P. P.; and in the town, the newly erected mansion of A. G. Creagh, Esq. The parish is in the diocese of Cloyne, and is a perpetual curacy, forming part of the union of Templeroan, or Doneraile, in the patronage of the Bishop; the rectory is impropri ate in Edward Giles, Esq., of Park, near Youghal. The tithes (including Rossagh and Kilcoleman) amount to £1173. 7. 1., the whole of which is payable to the impropriator, subject to an allowance of 13. 6. 8., (late currency) to the officiating minister. The church, at the north end of the town, is a neat and commodious edifice with a tower, formerly surmounted by a spire which was blown down about 12 years since. It was erected in 1816, by aid of a loan of £2000 from the late Board of First Fruits, and contains an ancient font, and a mural monument to several members of the St. Leger family. The evening church service is performed in the courthouse during the winter, and the Methodists also assemble there on alternate Fridays. Rossagh and Kilcoleman, which are said to have been formerly distinct parishes, have merged into this both for civil and ecclesiastical purposes. In the R. C. divisions the parish is united to those of Cahirduggan and Templeroan. The chapel is a handsome and spacious edifice, erected by subscription in 1827: it consists of a nave lighted on each side by lofty windows and surmounted by a cupola: the altar and other internal decorations correspond with its exterior. The site was given by Lord Doneraile, who also contributed £50 towards its erection. A convent for nuns of the order of the presentation has been established here for many years, and liberally endowed by Miss Goold. The chapel attached to it is open to the public on Sunday morning, and the chaplaincy is endowed with £83 per ann., by Miss Goold, who has also appropriated £28 per ann. for clothing the children educated at the convent school, where about 400 girls are gratuitously instructed, and taught both plain and orna mental needlework. The parochial school of 25 children is aided by £10 per ann. from the incumbent, and a school at Ballinvonare of 110 children is aided by £12 per ann. from Harold Barry, Esq., who also provides the school-house. The Lancasterian free school of 300 boys is within the demesne of Lord Doneraile, by whom it is entirely sup ported, and a school of about 20 girls is supported by Lady Doneraile, who also pays a writing-master for attending it. A dispensary is supported here in the customary manner. At Ballyandree is a chalybeate spring, stated to be of much efficacy in complaints of the liver. Of the remains of antiquity Kilcoleman castle is the most interesting from having been once the residence of the poet Spenser. It was originally a structure of some magnitude, the property of the Desmond family, and on their forfeiture was, with about 3000 acres of land, granted by Queen Elizabeth, in 1586, to Edmund Spenser, who resided here for about 12 years, during which period he composed his “Faery Queen”. The ruins, situated on the margin of a small lake, have a very picturesque appearance, being richly clothed with ivy; the tower-staircase and the kitchen are still nearly entire, and one small closet and window in the tower quite perfect. The castle at Creagh is in good preservation, and about to be fitted up as an appendage to the family mansion. The ruins of Castle Pook still remain, but of Doneraile castle, which stood near the bridge, and in which Sir William St. Leger held his court of presidency, there is not a vestige. Doneraile gives the titles of Viscount and Baron to the family of St. Leger.

SHANBALLYMORE – Lewis’ Topographical Dictionary 1837 - SHANBALLYMORE, a village, in the parish of TEMPLEROAN, barony of FERMOY, county of CORK, and province of MUN STER, 4 miles (E.S.E.) from Doneraile, on the road to Rockmills; containing 415 inhabitants. This village, which sometimes gives name to the parish, contained, in 1831, 80 houses, mostly thatched; also one of the two R. C. chapels belonging to the district of Doneraile, a plain cruciform building. A patent exists for a fair, which is not held. Adjoining the village is Shanbally, the seat of Watkins Roberts, Esq. Here was formerly a castle, of which no vestiges are in existence.

TEMPLEROAN – Lewis’ Topographical Dictionary 1837 - TEMPLEROAN, also called SHANBALLYMORE, a parish, in the barony of FERMOY, county of CORK, and province of MUNSTER, 2 ½ miles (E.) from Doneraile, on the road from Mallow to Mitchelstown; containing 1788 inhabitants. It is situated on the river Awbeg, by which it is bounded on the south-west, and comprises 3745 statute acres, as applotted under the tithe act, and valued at £2965 per annum. The land is of medium quality and chiefly under tillage, and the system of agriculture has of late years been much improved, the gentry having adopted the drill system, which example the smaller farmers are gradually imitating. On Graig mountain are about 450 acres of reclaimable land, at present affording coarse pasturage; lime stone abounds and is quarried both for building and agricultural purposes; and at Graig are some indications of coal. The river Awbeg, the scenery of which is very interesting, is at Ballynamona crossed by a neat bridge: a large flour-mill, the property of R. Welstead, Esq., is propelled by this river, and is capable of producing annually about 12,000 barrels of flour. The seats are Graig, the residence of James Hill, Esq., beautifully situated on a gentle declivity in the midst of an extensive and highly improved demesne; Shanbally, of Watkins Roberts, Esq.; Old Town, of Rear-Admiral Henry Evans, in a retired situation on the north-eastern bank of the river; Clogher, of G. Bond Low, Esq.; and Ballynamona, the ancient family residence of Garret Nagle, Esq., about to be rebuilt. The manor of Doneraile extends over the townland of Ballynamona, where a court is occasionally held for the recovery of small debts. The living is a rectory, in the diocese of Cloyne, united by act of council to the perpetual curacy of Doneraile, and in the gift of the Bishop. The tithes amount to £350, and the incumbent, as curate of Doneraile, receives from the impropriator of that parish a stipend of £13. 6. 8., late currency. The church of the union is in the town of Doneraile. In the R. C. divisions also the parish forms part of the union or district of Doneraile; the chapel at Shanballymore is a plain cruciform building. About 140 children are educated in two private schools. On the Clogher estate, which once belonged to the celebrated Edmund Burke, was an ancient and strongly fortified castle, called Shanogh, of which some vestiges of the foundations may still be traced; and attached to the mansion of Ballynamona is the venerable ruined castle of that name, said to have been originally built by the Nagle family in the reign of King John; it now consists chiefly of a square tower, richly mantled with iv and forming an extremely interesting object: of the castle of Shanbally more not a vestige now exists. In the burial-ground are the ivied ruins of the ancient church: it has been for centuries the burial-place of the Nagle family.

SLATER’S 1846 DIRECTORY – DONERAILE

A MARKET and post town (formerly a parliamentary borough), in the barony of Fermoy, county of Cork, is 140 miles SW by S from Dublin, 26 N by W from Cork, 19 E from Newmarket, 15 NE from Kanturk, 12 ½ SW from Mitchelstown, and 7 NE from Mallow; seated on the banks of the Aubeg, in the midst of a populous and romantic neighbourhood, the scenery of which has many attractions for the tourist. The river is crossed by a handsome stone bridge of three arches; besides this structure the town has little to boast in the way of architectural elegance: it consists chiefly of one wide street, and one or two smaller. The place is distinguished by no particular branch of business, and is without manufactures, unless two or three corn mills, in the vicinity, which furnish employment to a number of persons, may be taken as an exception. The government of the town is with the county and resident magistrates, who sit in petty sessions in the court-house occasionally. The inhabitants obtained the privilege of returning two members to the Irish parliament, from Charles II, and continued so to do until the legislative Union, when the borough was disenfranchised.

The parish church, erected in 1816, situated at the north end of the town, is a neat and commodious edifice with a tower, formerly surmounted with a spire, which was blown down about twenty years since. The Roman Catholic chapel is a handsome and spacious structure, erected by subscription in 1827, and consists of a nave, lighted on each side by lofty windows. A convent of the order of the Presentation has been established here for many years, and liberally endowed by Miss Goold; the chapel attached to it is open to the public on Sunday mornings. A considerable number of girls are gratuitously instructed by the sisters, and a certain number are clothed from out of the endowment, Two public schools, and a dispensary are the other charitable institutions. The neighbourhood is studded with numerous seats of the gentry; among these, the most conspicuous is Doneraile Park, distinguished for its extent and beauty; and the mansion, a handsome and substantial edifice, seated on an eminence, is the occasional residence of Lord Viscount Doneraile. The market is held on Saturday, and an annual fair on the 12^th August. Population of the parish, in 1841, 8,350, and the town, 2,722 of that number.

POST OFFICE, Main street, John Haycroft, Post Master. – Letters from Limerick, Charleville, Mallow, &c, arrive every afternoon at three, and are despatched every morning at seven. Letters from Cork arrive every forenoon at eleven, and are despatched every afternoon at ten minutes before one.

(CE 10/7/1848) - EVICTIONS OF TENANTRY AT DONERAILE (Transcribed by Anita Sheahan Coraluzzi © 2002. All Rights Reserved.) - From Our Reporter - In compliance with instructions which I received, it becomes my duty to direct attention to the manner in which the law of ejectment is carried out, in a portion of this county heretofore exempt from the odium attaching to its harsh and arbitrary execution. The present communication has reference in particular, to a series of evictions which are stated to have occurred upon the estate of Mr. James White, situated in the vicinity of Doneraile and which, though forming the subject of sever and unqualified comment in private, have not up to the present time been submitted to public censure or observation.

With reference to the statements herein contained, it is believed that they rest upon authority, which can scarcely be impugned whatever offence may attend their publication. Those which relate to transactions for some time past, are authenticated by the record of their respective dates, and the names of the sufferers; while those of more recent occurrence are derived from personal and careful inquiry, and consist of facts either unquestioned, or capable of being established beyond the possibility of contradiction.

It is only recording a fact which is familiar to those acquainted with the management of Mr. White's property to state that is has been characterised by a strict assertion of his "rights." Since the month of April in 1847, and with the facility for clearance created by the distress of that year, it appears that not less than fifty families, comprising 229 human beings, have been removed from the estates of Kingstown and Skehanabeg, in his possession. I inquired among the remaining inhabitants, what had become of several of those individuals, whose names were mentioned in a list, and whom it is unnecessary here to particularize; and the answer was in every case similar, as far as regarded the fortunate or unfortunate character of their subsequent fate. Some were traced to the workhouse; others were represented to me as having died by the ditch sides adjacent, in the destitution of that year; the great majority of them were stated to be wandering about in a state of mendicancy; whilst, whatever were their sufferings, but few of the sufferers themselves remained to tell. It deserves to be remarked, as showing the circumstances of their removal, that of the entire number only one family possessed the sufficient means, after their eviction, to enable them to emigrate to America.

The acts which produced such melancholy consequences appear to have been continued up to so late a period as the 17^th of June, when the last event of the kind took place; and to which, as it has given occasion for this communication, and was attended with circumstances of unusual severity, it is necessary more particularly to refer.

In the instance alluded to, the unfortunate victim was a widow named Green; and the details of this unhappy woman's case, as they were subsequently sworn to, are worthy of special attention. She held under a tenant of Mr. White, and upon his surrender, was included in an ejectment which was brought in 1847. Upon the occasion of its execution her house was thrown down, with the others upon the land. However, she continued, whether with or without the permission of the landlord, to reside in a hut constructed of the same materials. Some months since it appears that the hut was a second time razed; and again the inmates, with the attachment to the home characteristic of the peasantry, returned to the almost roofless cabin, devoid, as it was, of every circumstance that could render it not merely a place of comfort, but of shelter. Upon the 17^th of June, however, orders were given to renew the scene of demolition, and the person employed as driver by Mr. WHITE, with an assistant, proceeded to carry them into execution.

When they arrived at the place, the mother was absent on an errand, the object of which was to procure some nutriment for the infant child. After a remonstrance from one of the men against the act being done in her absence, which was silenced by the other's reminding him of his duty, they commenced to tumble the remnant of the hovel; and it was only when their attention was recalled or directed to the circumstance that the poor infant was within the walls, that they removed it from the danger of being crushed to death, only to consign it to the chance of the same fate from exposure and cold.

They next proceeded to burn the thatch that had formed the roof, in order to prevent the house being rebuilt of the old materials, as had happened before. Whether this was done in pursuance or in abuse of their orders, it is not for me to assert. However, it happened that in executing what was considered the most necessary, as it was certainly the most cruel, part of their function, they exposed themselves to consequences which they did not expect, as committing an incendiary act. Such an act, when it became known, was felt to be so unwarrantable, and so much exceeding all conception of the "rights of property" that it was thought the criminal law must be extremely defective, if it could not be made available against the perpetrators. Accordingly measures were taken to prosecute the parties engaged in this grievous instance of misconduct.

Upon the representation of the Rev. Mr. Payton, the police even deemed it their duty to interfere, upon the following day, when the work of demolition was intended to be resumed, but was suspended by their presence. - In order to verify the information which I received, by personal observation, I proceeded lately, in company with the Rev. Mr. Peyton [sic], to visit the place which was the scene of the occurrence.

Adjoining the road were to be seen, thickly strewn, the ruins of hovels, some of more recent, and others of more remote demolition. The traces of eviction were further evident in the thistles, which appeared to have replaced cultivation on the cleared estates of Skehanabeg and Kingstown. The widow Green's tenement was situated on a ploughland called by the former name, at the foot of a range of hills known as the Ballinhoura mountains, and in a locality rendered remarkable by the vicinity of the celebrated Castle Pook. It is necessary to observe that she was not strictly in the occupation of land, unless that denomination could be given to a kind of enclosed area, overgrown with weeds, in the corner of which upon a platform of earth, the remnant of a hovel appeared. Of all the contrivances which the misery of the peasantry has substituted for human habitations, this in its present state was the most miserable beyond comparison.

It occupied a space of about five feet square, and was formed by the angle of a fence no equally high, with an old door for a third side, and covered with a blanket which was saturated with rain--A young girl, who was in the hut, and was a witness to the transaction attending its destruction, related the scene, as it has been already detailed. The pieces of charred timber which were piled near gave a melancholy attestation to her statement of how it was effected. We inquired how long her father was dead, and learned that he had sunk last year, with others, under the fatigue of crossing the bog to work on the roads through the mountain. She stated that Mr. White, senior, had never been there, and it is possible that if he had witnessed in person the wretchedness of the occupants, they would not have been disturbed by his agents.

But it appeared that Mr. White jun. had visited the place soon after the outrage, and having asked whether the Rev. Mr. Peyton had come there, that he denied it was part of Hegarty's instructions to burn the house. - Nevertheless, it would seem that this was the second time he had mistaken the extent of his instructions; for, according to the statement of the woman, he had sought upon the preceding occasion also to burn the roof, but was prevented by her opposition. Mr. White however, proceeded to maintain that it was the right of the men to do so. It is needless to observe that in a controversy carried on under the different circumstances of the disputants in this case, it was easy to assign the victory.

I have been informed that the plot of ground, of which it was sought by such harsh means to recover the possession, was disputed property. I conversed upon this subject with an intelligent farmer, who declared himself ready to prove, if necessary, that it did not belong to Mr. White, and he even stated that no one could be found of sufficient age to remember the circumstances of its acquisition, to assert to the contrary. It appears that it was reclaimed and appropriated by a tenant of Mr. White, to whom alone the woman paid rent, amounting to the sum of 7s. 6d. per year. The rightful ownership is claimed to be vested in Mr. Ralph Evans, who however, was unwilling to engage in the expense necessary to establish his claim for the value of such a possession.

In mentioning the name of this individual it may not be inappropriate to the present subject, to advert to a circumstance, which exemplifies the state of different properties under different systems of management. It is this, that while the course pursued upon the estate of Mr. White has rendered the lowland a desert in appearance, Mr. Evans, on the contrary, has enclosed and cultivated a large and beautiful space upon the side of the adjacent mountain.

Subjoined is a list of the total number of inhabitants, who were prevailed upon or compelled to leave their holdings on the lands of Kingstown. In order to show the extent of the inducements addressed to those who were not subjected to force, it is unnecessary to direct attention to the extremely curious item which figures as compensation, and which, it may be thought, might have been omitted without detriment to Mr. White's vindication.

It would be inconsistent with the object of this communication to allude to the character of Mr. White in other respects, which have no relation to the present subject, as deserving of censure or of praise. It might not be difficult, perhaps, to refer to his favour to instances of personal courtesy amiable in private life. At the same time, it is right not to withhold any circumstance tending to convey a more favourable impression of his actions. Justice then, requires it to be stated that the tenants paid him little, if any, of the rent, and that, as far as I could ascertain, they spared no effort, whether excusably or otherwise, to retain the possession.

It is due to the Rev. Mr. Peyton, the Roman Catholic Clergyman, to ascribe to him the merit of having brought the details of this heart-rending case before the public. But for his interference, the sufferers would probably have been unnoticed, in a place where it was as unlikely that oppression as that sympathy would reach. --And it was only one of a series of similar instances of benevolence on his part, to have supplied the means of alleviating their sufferings, while taking measures to expose and redress them.

INFORMATIONS TAKEN AGAINST THE PARTIES

In consequence of the foregoing affair, an application was made at the Petty Sessions of Doneraile on Monday for criminal informations against the parties implicated in it. Presiding Magistrate - Robert Bailey, Esq., RM - After a few cases of no public interest had been disposed of, the clerk called that of Eliza Green against Jeremiah Hegarty and Michael Grady, for having with force and violence entered and thrown down her house, and burned part of same.

The Complainant, whose countenance bespoke the effects of severe and protracted want, having appeared, was sworn, when she stated she did not herself see the transaction which was the subject of the summons, having been out of her house at the time: but that when she came back, it was burned, and she found her child (which she carried in her arms) alone at the place.

Margaret Corbett, the witness, was then sworn, and gave her evidence very distinctly. She said that Jeremiah Hegarty and Michael Grady came to her cabin, on the day in the summons (the 17^th of June) and told her clear it out, as they were going to fall it. She answered that they should not do it, until her husband came home. "Send for him" said Hegarty. She replied that she would not, and that they should "fall" herself before they did her cabin, until he came home himself. Hegarty then said to Grady, come and we will fall this little cabin "below." They went down to the widow Green's and she followed them. When they began to fall the sides of it, "Jeremiah" said she to Hegarty, "the child is inside, and take him out, and don't mind falling her house until she comes home herself." "Where is she?" said he. She told him she was gone out to the mountain, to get a drop of milk for the child. "Don't," said Michael Grady also. "Do you mind your business" said Hegarty "and don't be ordering."

They then commenced pulling down the house, and Grady told Hegarty to bring out the child. "There's time enough" Hegarty answered, afterwards he did so, and laid the child in the corner of the furrougha. After that they threw down the rest of the house.

The Magistrate remarked that her testimony did not implicate Grady, for it would appear that he was anxious to prevent the proceeding.

The woman, in continuation, said that the two of them threw down the hut together, after Grady was told to do his business; when it was entirely levelled, Hegarty brought fire, and burned the thatch; the widow Green's house was within a rope's length of her own; Hegarty threw down her house twice before, once when her little girl was lying down in fever.

Mr. Bailey--When was it--is he summoned for that transaction? - A policeman answered that he was not.

Mr. White jun., (barrister) who appeared for the defence, here stated that the parties had been ejected and afterwards came back and squatted on the ground; therefore they had taken illegal possession. - Mr. White--They were ejected

Mr. Baily--Prove it--Prove it--statement is no proof. - Mr. White exhibited the writ of ejectment, which had been obtained in the case. - Mr. Baily declared that this was no evidence, and asked who executed the decree.

Mr. Campion (agent of Mr. White sen.)--The immediate tenants of Mr. White gave up possession. - Clerk--Was the decree ever executed?

Mr. Campion--No, further than to have the families turned out. - The Rev. Mr. Peyton--They never gave up the possession. - Mr. Campion repeated that they did give up the possession.

Mr. Baily-- (to the complainant)-- I will give you informations against those parties. (To the clerk of the court) Prepare them, and let them be sent to the assizes.

Informations were then prepared accordingly, and the woman who was examined was bound in her recognizance to appear to prosecute. Another witness, the daughter of the complainant, was also present to depose to the same facts but was not called. The persons accused, as usual, were placed in custody; and not withstanding the influential advocacy, by which they were attended on the investigation, they were suffered to be taken to the county gaol for want of bail, whether it was that such could not be found, or that it was deemed advisable not to give the colour of support to men who had been so far found guilty of a criminal offence.

At a subsequent period of the day Mr. White applied to the bench for the aid of a police force on the next day in order to carry out the decree, which it was alleged for the defence had been already executed, against the widow Green, or others similarly situated. The magistrate refused to grant an order for the purpose, on the ground that it was the proper duty of the sheriff to attend at and direct such proceedings.

(CE 3/9/1849) - MORE EXTERMINATION - [From a Correspondent] - Doneraile, 29^th August – Yesterday, Mr. Burke, Sub-Sheriff, and Mr. G. Ryder Barry, receiver under the court, accompanied by Sub-Inspector M'Leod, and a party of police, proceeded to the lands of Ballyellis, Ross, and Stream Hill, the property of Mr. George Crofts, where they dispossessed 14 families numbering 75 persons. Possession was given up in the most peaceful manner, though some of the unfortunate creatures had their little garden of potatoes nearly ripe, and their oats almost fit to cut. It is needless to state the misery and destitution those persons are consequently obliged to undergo. The above lands of Ross and Stream Hill are now a dreary looking wild presenting a melancholy spectacle of demolished cabins and uncultivated fields. Within the last two years about 30 families, in addition to the above, were ejected from these lands, a few of those contrived to emigrate to America; others met a lingering death in the poor house; while some died of actual hunger at the road side. The lands are under the Court of Chancery*, and since the eviction of tenants, neither this year, nor last, has a spade or a plough been put into them. The people have been ejected because they were not able to pay rack-rents, and now hundreds of acres of arable land lie uncultivated, because the proprietor has not the means of improving it. Under such circumstances, to which similar might be found in the neighbourhood, what can be expected but galling poverty, misery and ruin?

*(CE 17/9/1849) – IN CHANCERY – George James Allman and others, Plaintiffs, George Crofts and others, Defendants – Rev. George Gwyne and others, Plaintiffs, George Crofts and others, Defendants.

PURSUANT to the Directions of Jeremiah John Murphy, Esquire, the Master in these Causes, I shall, on MONDAY, the 24^th day of September, Instant, at the Hour of One o Clock, in the Afternoon of said day, at the Office of Mr. Richard Wynn, in the Town of Mallow, in the County of Cork, submit to Public Competition, the Letting for Seven Years, pending these Causes, from the 29^th day of September, Instant, of the several Farms and Lands in the Schedule hereto particularly mentioned, either Separately or in Lots, or I shall receive Proposals from persons desirous to become Tenants to any portion of said Lands, viz:-
