1-2-1849 Nenagh Guardian. State of Ireland. The Quarter Sessions for Tipperary which have continued for nearly six weeks, terminated yesterday Tuesday evening. The number of persons tried in the two ridings amounted to nearly one thousand. Thirty eight persons have been sentenced at Cashel and Nenagh to several periods of transportation. The number of prisoners in the Nenagh Gaol at the present moment exceeds seven hundred, and not withstanding its crowded state, it is clean and healthy. Assault and Robbery--On Saturday night three men, armed with pistols, entered the house of Edward Russell, a respectable farmer, residing near Roscrea, and demanded from him £20, the price of four pigs which he had sold that day in Rathdowney at the fair. Mrs Russell told the ruffians that all the money her husband had he gave to a neighbour named Tim Parr, whereupon Russell started from his seat, laid hold of a chair, and placed it against the chest of one of the fellows who was about seizing him, but at the same time he received a violent blow of a pistol on the head, which knocked him down and cut him severely. One of them then searched his pockets, in which he found only three pence, whilst the others, who were after administering an oath to Russell, as to whether he had any money, ransacked the house, and assaulted in an unmerciful manner Russell's wife and servant boy, who had offered them some resistance. Not having found any money, but the three pence, they decamped, very much displeased with the result of their nocturnal visit. On Sunday night, the house of a labourer named Thady Fogarty, of Glankeen, near Borrisoleigh, was forcibly entered by three men, one of whom was armed with a pistol and the others with sticks. One of the fellows immediately extinguished a rushlight and the fire, when another of them knocked down Fogarty with the blow of a stick. While prostrate, the pistol was discharged at him, but, fortunately, without taking effect, as the shot passed under his arm, without doing any injury. They then kicked him severely, but ultimately spared his life at the solicitation of his wife and daughter. This poor fellow's sole offence was working for a person who had taken land from which the former occupants were ejected for non payment of rent. 3-3-1848 Freeman's Journal. Record Court Wednesday, Before Lord Chief Justice Doherty. His Lordship opened the court at ten o'clock, and proceeded to try the criminal cases. Thomas Doyle was transported for ten years for stealing a horse and two bridles from James Hayes, at Killenaule, Co. Tipp. John Nugent was sentenced to be transported for seven years for appearing in arms at Lisdoon, assaulting the habitation of Patrick Larkin, and ordering him to leave his employment. Michael Flaherty was found guilty of stealing a gun from John White, of Clonamohan. Peter Hussy was found guilty of stealing two heifers from Philip Rourke, of Killoney. Not sentenced. Patrick Collins was sentenced to be transported for seven years for stealing a pig, the property of Mr. Sherlock, of Milltown.

Intimidation-On the 30th ult, about two o'clock in the morning, five men to the house of Patrick Fogarty, a farmer residing in Glankeen, near Borrisoleigh. Two of the party were armed with pistols, two more with sticks, and the fifth with stones. They entered the dwelling by forcing open the door with a crowbar. Fogarty, on hearing the noise, jumped out of bed, and endeavoured to close the door, but the fellows threw it in about the floor, dragged Fogarty into the yard when devoid of covering, placed him on his knees, put a pistol to his throat, in his hand a prayer book, on which they swore him to give up land which he recently took, for which he had paid a fine of 20/., to a man named Dwyer. One of the fellows when going away struck Fogarty a severe blow of a stick on the shoulder, and another broke six panes of glass in Fogarty's dwelling house windows. 6-9-1849 Tipperary Vindicator. Sunday about five hundred men, with cars, etc, entered the lands held by the Widow Doyle, at Kilmikill, in the parish of Moyne, and cut and carried away thirteen acres of wheat, which had been auctioned on the preceding Saturday. The tenantry on these lands and the middleman, Counsellor Marnion, have not been on amicable terms for a long time. It will be remembered that for a murder on this property about 18 months ago, two men of the name of Connolly were executed. Monday the sub sheriff's deputy, accompanied by Sub Inspector Malone and a party of Police, proceeded to the lands of Ballydaff, in the Parish of Glankeen, and dispossessed six families, the tenants of Mr. O'Driscoll, Barrister-at-Law. The names of the persons evicted are:--- Patrick Bourke, wife and nine children. Martin Ryan, wife and one child. William Gleeson, wife and six children. Widow Doyle and three children. Widow Connell, and three children. Michael Burke, wife and six children. Mr. Driscoll, it is said arranged to let in Martin Ryan on securing him in three quarters rent out of two years rent due. John O'Neill, the principal in the abduction of Miss Cleary from her sister's house in Toomevara, for which his three accomplices were sentenced to two years imprisonment at last Nenagh's assizes, was arrested yesterday (Tuesday). He was escorted into Nenagh by Constable Wallace, and a party of the Kilkeary police. Thirty slugs were lodged in the body of a man employed by Mr. Mansergh, of Drangan, on Wednesday last, by a ruffian who fired at him near his door. The man yet lives, and the miscreant who attempted his death is unknown. 18-5-1835 From the Clonmel Herald. On Sunday night an attack was made on the house of a man named Hewet, at Mealiffe, two shots were fired into it, after which they went to the stable and killed two horses, when they departed they posted notices, stating that if he did not give up the ground which he had lately taken, they would give him the death of Mr. Going, and afterwards burn him and his family as the Sheas were. 18-10-1844 On the 9th inst., four armed men rushed into the house of Richard Pennefather, Esq. of Ballynira, near Mealiffe, about 11'30, and took away two valuable guns. Mrs Pennefather was confined to her room, which the ruffians attempted to force open, but was prevented by the assistance of a female servant, who ran before them into her mistress's room. Mr. Pennefather was away at the time, walking to Church with the clergyman's family, and of hearing of the outrage, mounted his horse and pursued the party without success. 21-11-1848 Thurles Guardians. In the union of Thurles the gentry appear to have come to a wise and provident resolution-rather to give employment than defray the cost of relief. Mr. Carden of Barnane, has intimated to the guardians that he has employment for 200 people in draining, etc. Mr. Ryan of Inch, will also give employment to a large number of men and women, and Mr. Trant, besides affording employment, is forgiving all arrears, and otherwise assisting those of this tenantry who wish to emigrate. If the gentry of the other poor-law unions throughout Ireland would imitate this example, we should not hear so much either of the oppressiveness of the poor-law or the misery of the people. 26-2-1833 Constable Woods, of Barnane station, succeeded in taking from a man of the name of Kennedy of Burrisafarney, a case of pistols, and a gun which had been ingeniously fixed behind the fire place in a log of wood. 26-4-1867 Thurles April 23rd--Four young men were arrested yesterday by the police in the neighbourhood of Drombane on a charge of being concerned in the late Fenian rising. During the past week upwards of 20 prisoners arrived here from the neighbourhood of Annfield and Drombane. Cashel April 23rd Today, Sub Constable Patrick Whelan and John McKay, of the Thomastown police station arrested a man named William Farrell, a farm Labourer, on a charge of being one of a party of armed men assembled on the 5th March, at Ballthurst, for the purpose of levying war against the Queen's authority in Ireland, and the establishment of a Republican therein.He was subsequently escorted to Cashel by the same constables, and remanded by the Hon. M.J. Ffrench on a charge of high treason.
