THE CONNAUGHT JOURNAL Galway, Monday, August 9, 1824 MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT A fine boy, aged 12 years, second son of Mr. Devenish, at the Island of Arran, was unfortunately drowned a few days since while in the act of stepping from a canoe into a sailing boat. - Every exertion was used on finding the body to restore animation, but all efforts proved fruitless. ANOTHER ACCIDENT The lifeless corpse of Mr. Francis O'Flaherty, eldest son of Mr. O'Flaherty, of Garomoe, was found in his room a few days since, in which he had previously retired in perfect health and spirit. The contents of a fowling piece, which lay upon the table, and which, he is supposed, he was preparing for sport, were found discharged into his body - and thus has this promising youth found a premature grave in the very spring time of his life. He was 21 years of age - was universally and deservedly esteemed, and is now regretted by all who knew him.
