    1. [IRL-CAVAN] ANGLO-CELT - SEPTEMBER 21, 1854
    2. ANGLO-CELT SEPTEMBER 21, 1854 THE ULSTER BANK IN CAVAN--We are sorry--and our readers will share in the regret--that William THOMPSON, Esq., is retiring from the managership of the branch of the Ulster Bank, which is in this town, having been promoted to an important post in the bank in Belfast. We question if the annals of our town could give record of another who, within so short a space of time, acquired the high character which Mr. THOMPSON did. All who knew him--and he was known to every one--esteemed him as a gentleman who knew how to temper the most energetic business habits with courtesy and kindness. James WANN, Esq., is appointed in his place, and while we say of him that he is well worthy to be successor to Mr. THOMPSON, we are confident that we could pay him no higher compliment..... HOMICIDE--A man named M'CREEDY, a resident in Cootehill, in this county, died yesterday from the effects of a wound he received on Sunday last, in these circumstances. He went matchmaking to the house of a person named HOPKINS, who lived at a distance of about four miles from the town, and somehow or other, an alteration took place then. Word followed word, and at last HOPKINS rushing upon him stabbed deceased with a knife in the belly. He lingered until yesterday, as we have stated, and then died. A coroner's inquest was held on his body to day, but the issue we have not yet learned. ____________________________________________________________ BIRTHS Sept. 17, in Cavan, the wife of Rev. James CARSON, P.M., of a daughter. September 18, in Cavan, the wife of Andrew MEASE, Esq., of a daughter. MARRIAGES On the 14th instant, in Fenagh Church, county of Leitrim, by the father of the bride, A. S. BUTLER, Esq., third son of Sir Thomas BUTLER, of Ballintemple, county Carlow, to Mary Matilda, eldest daughter of the Rev. George de la Poer BERESFORD. On the 12th instant, in the parish Church of Renown by the Rev. David Robert BLEAKLEY, A.M., Gorges GRAHAM, Esq., Somerville, county Cavan, to Louisa Maria, eldest daughter of the late Robert SMYTH, Esq., Portlick Castle, county of Westmeath. DEATHS Sept. 15, at Castle Bagot, in the county of Dublin, Gerald DEASE, Esq., of Turbotstown, county Meath, aged 68 years. In Marlborough-street, on the 12th instant, at an advanced age, Miss Anne O'REILLY, daughter of Dr. O'REILLY, formerly of Oldcastle, county Meath, and niece to the late celebrated Dr. SHERIDAN of Dominick- street, in this City. Few are more respected or beloved by those whom she favoured with her friendship; her genius, understanding, and talents, even in her latter years, were the admiration of all who enjoyed her society; having outlived her own generation, she was the guide, com- panion, and example of the grandchildren of those she commenced life with, and is another proof, if such were wanting, of the usefulness and excellence of single life. _______________________________________________________________- COUNTY OF CAVAN--DIVISION OF CAVAN A List of Applications received by the Clerk of the Peace from Persons seeking Excise Licenses for the Sale of Beer, Spirits, &c., by Retail, within said county.....
