ANGLO-CELT SEPTEMBER 28, 1854 THE WAR There is no late news of any importance to hand. The allied forces, Turkish, English, and French, landed in the Crimea without opposition, and forthwith proceeded on a march to Sebastopol. How they will fare there, with the winter close at hand, and the "Conservator of the peace of Europe," as some fool, we don't remember his name, styled him, and a horde of Cossacks--but enough. Taxes will press, and the Irish Militia will be raised out of a diminished population. But these eventualities are to be expected. ______________________________________________________________ THREE MEN DROWNED--On Sunday evening, the 24th inst., about four o'clock, as Mr. IRVINE, his servant man, Mr. MOORE, the architect and his son, were all four sailing under a stiff breeze on Lake Erne, about four and a half miles down the lake from Enniskillen, in Mr. IRVAN's (sic) yatch. The yatch made right before the wind with all her canvass on, she immediately sank from carrping (sic) too much canvass. Mr. MOORE and son together with Mr. IRVAN's servant man were drowned. Mr. IRVINE narrowly escaped, and I hear, by wrapping his mackintosh closely about his body keeping the air (by which the mackintosh was inflated) secure till he was driven by the waves so near shore as to allow him to walk on dry land. Mr. MOORE leaves a wife and a large young family to deplore his untimely death. _____________________________________________________________ County Cavan Newspaper Transcription Project
