    3. 11-1-1884 Tipperary Leader. Great popular interest was evinced on Sunday last in the service of Timothy Ryan, who was evicted from his farm at Coolbawn, within a few miles of Borrisoleigh, about six months ago. The crop sown by the tenant was taken over by the Landlord, and protected by Police living in the vicinity. Advantage was taken of the absence of the Police, while away at Mass, to dig the potatoes sown by the tenant, when upwards of 200 men assembled, who had the produce of two acres cleared away in two hours. They also pitted a quantity of hay in the garden, in order to make the Police suppose that the potatoes had not been taken of the field.
