    1. [IRL-CAVAN] Anglo Celt - Rice Death, Cootehill Union - May 6, 1852

    3. "The Anglo Celt" Cavan; Thursday, May 6, 1852 DEATH. Died on Tuesday, the 27th of April, at his residence in Nappagh, near Shercock, Thomas RICE, Esq., of that townland, deeply and universally regretted by all who knew him. Mr. Rice was a Poor-law Guardian of his native (the Drumgoon) electoral division of Cootehill union, from the formation of the union, until the dissolution of that board under the sealed order of the Poor-law Commissioners in 1848, in which capacity his untiring exertion on behalf of the suffering poor endeared him to that class, whilst his judicious discrimination and economical expediters of the rates equally endeared him to the ratepayers. As a landlord, he was kind, _______ to his tenantry, as a son, a husband a father, his conduct was always dutiful, affectionate, and edifying. The benevolence of his heart and the amiability of his nature won for him the respect and esteem of all his acquaintances. His tedious and lingering illness of more than two years' duration he bore with the fortitude a! nd pious resignation of a sincere and devout Christian; and, retiring from this world for a better - for a world of eternal bliss and happiness - he left no enemy behind him. His early decease leaves in the circle of his society a void which will not soon be filled up. He leaves, too, behind him an aged father, a disconsolate mother, a sorrowing widow, and six young children to deplore his early death. Three vessels, crowded with emigrants, left the port of Limerick this week for the United States. A large number of the Society of Friends have arrived in Dublin to attend the May meeting. Amongst them are more than usually numerous arrivals from America. Henry BROWN, teacher of Ballydown National School, was last week remanded from Banbridge petty sessions to Newry Bridewell, for eight days, on a charge of writing threatening notices. - Ibid.
