    1. [IRL-CAVAN] ANGLO-CELT - SEPTEMBER 14, 1854
    2. ANGLO-CELT SEPTEMBER 14, 1854 DEATH BY DROWNING--On Sunday morning, the 10th inst., a young man named KENNEDY was drowned in the river Erne, about two miles distant from Belturbet. It appears that he and another boy went out to bathe, and the deceased, who could not swim very well, ventured rather too far out, and was actually drowning before his comrade observed him; he was at too great a distance to aid him until it was late. _____________________________________________________________ DIED On the 11th inst., at his residence, Seneschalston House, county Meath, in the prime of life, Laurence KELLY, Esq., a gentleman universally esteemed for his various benevolent and philanthropic qualities, combined with his mild and unassuming demeanour. In him the numerous poor of that locality have lost a generous bene- factor, and a constant and useful employer. His remains were accompanied on Wednesday last, to Painstown cemetery, by an extensive circle of respectable relatives, and a very considerable number of the clergy, gentry, and peasantry of the surrounding vicinity ___________________________________________________________ County Cavan Newspaper Transcription Project
