THE CONNAUGHT JOURNAL Galway, Monday, February 7, 1825 The estate of Menlo, part of which lies in the Counties of Galway and Clare, is about to afford some employment to the Gentlemen of the long robe. Mr. F.B. Foster claims it, he says, as heir-at-law. -- Weekly Register. DARING OUTRAGE On Thursday night last, the pound of Moycullen, which is situate immediately opposite the pound-keeper's house, was broke open by some persons, and several head of cattle taken therefrom, seized on the lands of Killigaile, the estate of William Martin, Esq., and impounded for a large arrear of rent due to him. The owners of the cattle must, no doubt, have been the perpetrators of this daring outrage; and, strange to say, the pound-keeper nor his sons, who act for him, have not as yet come forward to lodge information against these persons, although they cannot be known to them - nor have they rendered any account to Mr. Martin for the property thus committed to their charge. We understand an investigation of this affair is to take place before P.M. Burke, Esq. a Magistrate of this County. FORT-HILL About Seven Acres of this Land, being part of the Estate of Thomas H. Royse, Esq., will be Set from the 25th of March next. A Lease of one or two hundred years will be granted. For further particulars apply (if by letter post paid) to A. Royse, Esq., Ougherterard, or Francis Leland, Esq. 6, Fitzwilliam square, Dublin.
