    1. [IRL-CAVAN] ANGLO-CELT - AUGUST 18, 1848
    2. ANGLO-CELT AUGUST 18, 1848 COUNTY OF DONEGAL--AMERICAN SYMPATHIES--There cannot be a doubt that many restless spirits, anxious to take a part in the projected outbreak, have lately arrived in this peaceable county from American; they are, however, known, and every movement on their part watched by a vigilant magistracy. Two of the number, Andrew M'DAID and Hugh M'MENAMIN, were arrested a few days since, and committed to the gaol. _____________________________________________________________ The wretched culprit, Phillip FITZPATRICK, sentenced to death at the late Armagh Assizes, for the murder of John and William HENDERSON, at Lurgan, on the 20th of May last, was executed on Satruday, at noon, in front of the jail at Armagh. _____________________________________________________________ DEATHS At Arva, on the 12th instant, after a protracted illness, Anne, wife of J. B. GRAVES, Esq., Resident Magistrate for this County, and only daughter of the late James HOWLIN, Esq., of Ballycronigan, co. Wexford. At her residence, Northgate-street House, Chester, Anne, relict of the late John CHAMBERLAINE, Esq., and mother of Mrs. O'REILLY, of Annagh, of this county. (Mr. CHAMBERLAINE was a man of the most exalted views; he was honored by a public procession into the city of Chester; and it was he who suggested to Selford that Liverpool was built on the wrong side of the Mersey.) August 14, at Ballyconnell, Master Joseph COCHRANE. This excellent, amiable, and lamented young man, who has at an early age of 16 years, fallen a victim to the prevailing epidemic, was youngest son of Thomas COCHRANE, Esq. His afficted friends have indeed the soothing con- solation of a general participation in their sorrow, as we have seldom heard of so deep an impression of sympathy attending the loss of individual worth. At the Glebe House of Aghera, Co. Meath, the Rev. John KELLETT, for many years the esteemed rector of that parish. On the 12th inst., at Broomfield, Ballyhaise, the residence of her son, Rev. Arthur MONYPENY, in the 88th year of her age, Letitia, relict of the late Arthur MONYPENY, Esq., of Killeshandra. ===================================================== SUDDEN DEATH--A man named James GILLASPIE, was killed on last Saturday, on the lands of Peru, near Moynalty, by the kick of a horse, while adjusting some tackle on him, while ploughing for his master, Pat BRIEN. He has left a wife and two children. His death was instantaneous. ____________________________________________________________ County Cavan Newspaper Transcription Project
