16-11-1878 Freeman's Journal Court of Bankruptcy. In re Daniel Quirke. The bankrupt was a farmer and publican at Cappawhite, County Tipperary. The bankrupt was brought up in the custody of a warder of Clonmel Jail, having been arrested on an allegation that he was about to leave the country. Mr. John Hogan, Auctioneer, of Tipperary, was examined by Mr. Carton, Q.C. (instructed by Mr. O'Meara), for the assignees, relative to a sale of the bankrupt's farm and effects. He sold the bankrupt's property on the 10th of August, under instructions received from him, and realised £1065.7.10. There were but a few bidders, and Mr. Ryan, the bankrupt's brother in law, purchased everything. The property realised the full value, but there was an agreement that £600 of the money should remain out for six years. Mr. John Ryan deposed that he lent £650 to the bankrupt from time to time. He borrowed the money himself. He got no acknowledgement from the bankrupt, nor did he give any to the parties from whom he himself had borrowed. He bought the farm and effects for himself, and it was a perfectly bona fide purchase. Daniel Quirke, the bankrupt, was examined. He said money was lent to him by Ryan, and that there was no arrangement between them that the latter was to buy anything. He still continued to reside in the house thought it had been bought by Ryan. He had no intention of leaving the country. Except to Ryan, he only owed £120 or £180. Judge Miller discharged the bankrupt, and said it was a fair case for settlement. Mr. Scallan appeared for the bankrupt. 21-2-1880. Before Judge Walsh. In the matter of Timothy Fogarty. The bankrupt was a farmer at Coolagh, in County Tipperary. He is at present in custody in the Jail of Nenagh under the warrant of the court. On a former day he was examined relative to his affairs generally. The meeting today was for examination of witnesses. Mr. Perry, instructed by Mr. A.L. Ryan examined the daughter and son of the bankrupt, to whom he alleged he had paid certain sums of money. The case was further adjourned. Mr. Gibson, instructed by Mr. Matthews, appeared for the witnesses. In the case of Robert Stanley. The bankrupt was a farmer residing at Castle Fleming Heath, near Roscrea, Co. Tipperary. He was examined by Mr. Carton, Q.C., instructed by Mr. John Roe, on behalf of the assignee, with regard to the alleged removal of property, but he denied that since his bankruptcy he had disposed of anything. While he was in Dublin, his wife had sold a horse, but he did not know that at the time of making his accounting statement. Mr. George Perry, instructed by Mr. J. Perry, appeared for the bankrupt.
