Does anyone know what a "Central Committee," mentioned in the Anglo-Celt below, was? Thanks - this is one of the very few times I've seen the HART name.

The deceased is deeply regretted by her friends and by a large circle of neighbours and acquaintances. An amiable and excellent wife, a fond mother, and a meek Christian, her memory is embalmed in the sweetest recollections of all who knew her. Death, although it came unexpectedly had no terrors for her, for her life was spent in preparations for his approach. Beloved, esteemed, and honoured, while living, her loss is the most poignantly deplored by a sorrowing husband a numerous family. > > > > > > TENANT-RIGHT LEAGUE. > > The Council of the Tenant League, at a meeting held on the 24th of June, passed the following resolution:- > > Resolved: "That having read a report of a meeting held in Cootehill, in the county of Cavan on Monday the 14th inst., for the purpose of selecting Tenant-Right candidates, for that county, at which meeting Anthony O'REILLY, Esq., D. L. of Baltrasna was unanimously adopted; and having also read Mr. O'Reilly's Address, pledging himself to adopt Sharman CRAWFORD's bill in principle ad detail, and that he would oppose any Ministry who would not make said Bill a cabinet question, the council have to express their great satisfaction at the selection made by the Electors of Cavan of so staunch a supporter of Tenant Right, and earnestly recommend all the Electors of Cavan, who have the interest of the Tenantry at heart, to use all their exertions to secure Mr. O'Reilly's return." > > Proposed by Richard BARNWELL, Esq. > > Seconded by John C.

In the early part of the day a young man named Pat REILLY, who lived at a place called Muff. Between Bailieborough and Kingscourt, was observed by some parties to have some money, about ten pounds, it is supposed; and at the hour named in the evening, on leaving Mr. GARGAN's public house, he was set upon opposite the door, by five or six ruffians who killed and robbed him in the space of a few minutes. Several parties have been arrested and lodged in Cavan gaol to stand their trial for the crime. It is astonishing how a murder could be committed, without a single person, policeman or else, being at hand to save the life of the unfortunate deceased. > > > > > > Mr. WILSON the Cootehill missionary begs, on behalf of the Primitive Wesleyan Methodist Society, to thank Sir John YOUNG for £3, and the Hon.

Hi, Karen... I don't know what the duties of the Central Committee were, but I thought of you when I typed the name...
