Chronicle June 24th 1865 A man beaten by 12 women. On Monday last, being the fair of Rathkeale, a scene of the most extraordinary character took place in one of the streets of that town. It appears that a farmer from the neighbourhood endeavoured to enter the house of a woman, and in doing so was rudely expelled. He made another affort to gain his purpose, but was met with a few well directed blows. He then commenced to abuse the woman, and the result of this course was that her feminine neighbours to the number of 12 gathered around him, and almost flayed him alive. He was untimately removed from the neighbourhood of his adventure a sadder if not a wiser man. Frrom the Same Paper. Taking a Dandy to pieces. A story is related in Paris, of a certain elderly Dandy who continues to pass himself off far younger than he is, by the aid of some complicated appliances, and who had recently engaged, as valet de chambre, a young fellow, freshly imported from his vative village. The Valet who is much impressed by the grace of his new master's person, and who had no suspicion of their artificial nature, was greatly amazed on assisting him to undress, on the night of his entrance in his new job, at the work of the demolition in which he was called to assist. The coat and vest carried with them the beautifully rounded outlines that had showed to such advantage the moment before, and at the unbuckling of the corset the jaunty uprightness of the Dandy underwent a equally sudden collapse. The removal of the lustrous brown wig revealed a perfectly bare scalp, the white teeth followed the wig, and were gracefully placed in a glass of water. The pair of Gutta Percha "Plumpers" so skillfully placed between the the gums and the cheeks, were carefully taken out, betraying the hollows they had so effectually distended, and an artifical eye was next removed from an empty socket. The amazement of the unsophisticated servant had been at last deepening into horror as he witnessed these successive transformations; and when the Dandy; stooping towards his lower extremities, proceeded to unfasten a pair of false calves, the valet, imagining that his master was going to take himself completely to pieces, exclaimed in a tone of mingled anxiety and terror, "Oh, Monsiur Marquis, pray do leave enough of you for me to put to bed".

Clonmel Chronicle June 21st 1865. Extracts of Everything. A Lady, condemning the wearing of moustaches, declared, "It is one of the fashions I set my face against". One of the latest inventions for which a patent has lately been taken out is the shaking of carpets by steam. "Todays Times", said a boy selling papers last Saturday on the South-Western line; upon which a passenger, attempting a witticism, cried out, "Whats the use of to-days paper". I'll give you a shilling for tomorrow's paper, and the boy immediately handed him "The Sunday Times". The passenger refused to give him more than sixpence, but his fellow traveller made him keep his word, and he gave the sharp-witted boy the shilling. True to a hair.; A somewhat juvenile dandy said to a fair partner at a Ball. "Don't you think Miss, my moustachios are becoming". To which she replied, "Well, Sir, they may be coming, but they have not yet arrived. Mary

David Humphreys, C.C. and 33 others were charged by Police-Inspector Yates, with others unknown, "While armed with sticks, stones, and other offensive weapons, tumultuously assembled and did make a riot by yelling, shouting, and striking, throwing stones, and otherwise assaulting various persons and houses to the terror of her Majesty's Subjects". When the case was called it was found that 19 of the defendants, including the Rev. Father had disregarded the summons of the court. Bench warrants were issued for their arrest, and the hearing of the cases were adjourned until Monday. ------------------------------------- The work of demolishing the now famous William O'Brien Arcade in New Tipperary, was begun today. Eight or nine men belonging, it is stated to the Property Defence Association, started the work of demolition this morning at 4 O'Clock, and by the afternoon the greater number of the 26 shops within the building had been levelled to the ground. A few weeks since the application was made in the Dublin Courts to compel Mr. William Hurley, on whose property the mart was erected, to take it down, and on that application an order was made directing that this should be done; but in the event of Mr. Hurley's refusal power was reserved to the Landlord, Mr. Smith-Barry. M.P. to get it removed at Mr. Hurley's expense. The latter having shown no inclination to obey this order, the Landlord proceeded to exercise the power vested in him, and the result was that the first practical steps were taken today to take down what was one of the most prominent landmarks of New Tipperary. During the day a force of Police were engaged in protecting the Landlord's men. Mary

13-1-1877 Clonmel Chronicle. A good hoax. A few days ago, a discharged soldier came home to his native place in the vicinity of Kyle, about three miles from Timoney. On his arrival he was in his full uniform, which, upon procuring a suit of plain clothes, he laid aside as useless. A rural wit took advantage of the circumstances to practice upon the fears of his neighbours, and soon appeared, with streamers flying, a splendid specimen of a soldier. In a business like manner he provided himself with a note book and pencil, and entered the houses of the rustics, where he enquired the names and numbers of the male inmates. Upon being informed he struck the proportion of two out of four, and one out of three, and directed them to be prepared to depart at a moment's notice to the headquarters of the district, to undergo a course of drill preparatory to their departure to the seat of the war, which had already broken out. So completely was he metamorphised that no one even guessed at identification, and so impressed were the people that the anticipated adieux induced many tears and sobs on the part of loving parents, and tender hearted sisters. The truth has since come out, and the simple minded people feel quite ashamed. Mary

6-7-1842 From the Times. Thomas Stapleton and Thomas Gleeson were respectively indicted for having, on the 27th of April, at Lissatunny, in this county, fired a loaded gun at one Patrick Gleeson, with intent; To murder him, or to disable, or disfigure him. Patrick Gleeson, sworn and examined: I live at Lissatunny, in this County and am a tenant of Mr. Stafford O'Brien. That gentleman some time since made some changes in the quantity of land held by tenants, in order to square the farms. No one was dispossed altogether. I lost abou 5 acres, and gained two. The two acres I got were previously held by men named James Gleeson and Martin Nowlan. On the 27th. of April, a little after 7 O'Clock in the evening, I was returning from my work, and as I was passing a grove of trees , I met three men on the road, one who was armed with a gun, another with a pistol, and the third with a stick. They put me on my knees, and when they did so I asked them why they were going to shoot me, and how I deserved it. They replied, for tilling Nowlan's land. The prisoner Stapleton held the pistol, and Gleeson the gun. They went behind me in the road, Stapleton snapped the pistol twice at me, but it missed fire and would not go off. Gleeson then handed Stapleton the gun , who fired a shot at me, which broke my arm near the elbow. (The witnesses arm was bandaged up, and he appeared to be in a very bad state of health.) He was quite close to me when he fired, and my clothes were burned. The men were not disguised in any way, and I am positive that the prisoners were two of the men who attacked me. I have not recovered the use of my arm since, and have been under the care of Dr. Kempster up to the present time. Dr. Dempster deposed that he was the surgical attendant of Gleeson, and that it was only within a few days he had a hope of being able to save the poor man's arm from amputation. He was also present when the prosecutor, in the fullest manner, identified the two prisoners, and singled them out from a number of men of similar appearance and dress. Mr. Joseph Tabuteau, stipendiary magistrate, also proved the identification of the prisoners by Gleeson in his presence. The case for the Crown having closed, Several witnesses for the defence swore to an alibi for both prisoners. The Chief Justice then charged the jury, who found both prisoners guilty. Sentences. The several prisoners convicted of transportable offence-namely John Pound, Michael Hayes, Cornelius Flynn, Patrick Dwyer, Thomas Stapleton, and Thomas Gleeson, having being placed at the bar. The Right Hon. The Attorney General having applied for judgement of the Court upon these prisoners. The Lord Chief Justice, addressing th prisoners, said that the offences of which they had been convicted were one and all of them crimes of no ordinary enormity-crimes, by the commission of which they had respectively brought on themselves the moral guilt of murder. It had, however, pleased God to spare their souls from the pollution of that greatest offence; but no person who had heard and considered their trials; could have a doubt left on their minds, that though death had not ensued as a consequence of the outrages of which they had been convicted, it was solely through the mercy of God, and not owing to any forbearance on their parts, that that dreadful guilt did not then rest upon them. His Lordship next adverted to the case of Gleeson and Stapleton. Who were convicted of firing at Gleeson, and fracturing his arm, and concluded by saying, that a remarkable feature in all these crimes was, that there was no attempt of concealment. His Lordship then pronounced sentence of transportation for life against all prisoners, and the commission closed.

Comprising a period of 8 months. July 21st 1838. Murder. John Kennedy, who had been placed as and agent by Denis Canny, Esq, over some of his property, about three miles from Nenagh, and from a situation a man named Gleeson had been removed. Kennedy was fired at nearly two years ago, and shot through the arm, for which offence two sons of Gleeson, were prosecuted by him at the Assizes in Clonmel, but acquitted in consequence of the Prosecuter's testimony being shaken by a celebrated cross-examiner on the Leinster circuit, and ever since he has been obliged to carry fire arms for protection. He has been repeatedly served with threatening notices, and on Monday morning last, about 4 O'Clock, these notices were carried into full force against him. As he was proceeding at that early hour to look after the cattle under his care, he was pounced upon by a number of men, and murdered in a savage manner; he was a very muscular man, and the ditch and grass in the place where he was murdered bore marks of a furious struggle. At the time he was murdered he was armed with a stick and pistol, but such was the plan laid for his destruction, that these weapons were of no avail to him. It was known by his assassins, that he should pass through a narrow lane or Boreen, and inside the ditches they divided themselves into two parties, and when the fated man entered this passage, they set upon him, blockaded him up, and accomplished their deadly purpose, for as he escaped the pistol on a former occasion , they were determined , as the nature of his wounds proves, he should no more be a living witness against his assailants.

5-2-1902 From the Times. We have received a letter disclosing a number of facts about the United Irish League and its methods in County Tipperary. The writer of the letter is Mr. George S. Thompson, whose father and uncle hold about 3000 acres of grazing land in County Tipperary. The Thompsons have held the greater part of this land for nearly half a century. Without word or warning, says Mr. Thompson, a public meeting, which had been secretly called together, was held in the village of Drom at 6 O'Clock on the evening of Jan. 21st. Fortunately the Police had got wind of the meeting and were well prepared. The object of the meeting was to denounce the Thompson family for not surrendering their holdings to the landlords, though, as a matter of fact, they had not been asked to do so by the league. The holdings are not held on the 11 month's system, but, by lease and agreement. After the meeting was over the crowd moved on in order to hold another meeting within 300 yards of the Thompson's house. The demonstrators were accompanied by two local bands and about a dozen torch carriers. The ostensible object of the second meeting was to intimidate the Thompson family. At this point, however, the police intervened and stopped the advance of the crowd, not, however before the league organizer had made a speech. The torches consisted of sods of peat drenched with paraffin and stuck on the prongs of hayforks. There were between 150 and 200 people present at the meeting. On the following night another meeting was held, this time in Borrisoleigh. The meeting was publicly announced, and in consequence there were more people present. The object of the meeting was to denounce one George Cook and another man of the name of Kennedy for opposing the erection of Labourers cottages on their lands, the land being practically their own. The league organizer, who had spoken on the previous night, again addressed the meeting, and denounced the two men in the strongest terms, and also the Thompsons. He advised the crowd to boycott them, but didn't use the actual word boycott. The man Kennedy lives in Dublin, and a stack of hay belonging to his manager in Borrisoleigh, John Young, was burned to the ground by some of the crowd. It was on the following Sunday, however, that the largest meeting was held at Barna-cross, near Templemore. It was opened by a Priest and addressed by the league organizer, who told the people that they knew how to persuade people to give up their holdings. He said "Where do they buy their stock?. Where do they get their meat?. Where do they buy their victuals?. " and more in the same strain. After the meeting the crowd proceeded to the Thompson's house. The police tried to stop them, but they broke into the fields. There was a slight skirmish , but no one was hurt. At the gate of the house they halted for another speech, but the police moved them on and they went home. This is from a Dail Debate in 1938. Dáil Éireann - Volume 70 - 23 March, 1938 Ceisteanna-Questions. Oral Answers. - Division of Tipperary Estate. Mr. M. Ryan Mr. M. Ryan asked the Minister for Lands if he will state what is the cause of the delay in proceeding with the division of the Carden Estate, Barnane, Templemore, County Tipperary, applicants for which were interviewed several months ago. Mr. Boland Mr. Boland: The Land Commission have instituted proceedings for the acquisition of some 626 acres of the lands of Barnane on the Thompson Estate (formerly a holding on the Carden Estate), but these proceedings have not reached the stage when the lands can be acquired for division. No avoidable delay has occurred. Mary

12-9-1833 From the Times Last Tuesday, at sun-rise, six men, armed with a gun, four pistols, and a spade handle, went with their faces blackened to the lands of Rathsalla, in the County of Tipperary on the estate of Andrew Roe, Esq. and attacked two keepers that were placed on some property distrained for rent by that gentleman, due to him between two and three years. One of the keepers begged his life, and was suffered to escape, the other fought them, and was fired at and beaten in a shocking manner. Next day, Mr. Roe seized all the cattle belonging to his refractory tenants, and lodged them in the adjacent pound, placing an additional guard over them. The tenants then came in and paid up their arrears. Mary

14-7-1838 The Times. Paddy O'Dogherty and Mr. O'Connell. On the day of the coronation, Paddy O'Dogherty, a poor labouring Irishman, residing in Church Street, St. Giles; left his wife and family at home in a distressed state to try to get something to do at the coronation; and as he was proceeding along Pall-Mall his eyes were attracted by something dazzling on the ground., which he eagerly picked up and found that it was a beautiful gold pin. He hastened home full of joy, and having no food in his wretched habitation to give to his wife and children, he directed (Love that word. M. ) his wife to take it to a pawnbrokers and pledge it for a couple of shillings; but, on presenting so valuable an article, the pawnbroker, suspecting it to be stolen, detained her, and gave her into custody, and she was locked up until her husband came forward to give an account of her possession of the pin. The pin was handed over to an inspector of E division, with instructions that it should be advertised, and every exertion used to trace the owner, and it was at length found to have been lost by Capt. Marchmont, of the army. Paddy O'Dogherty called yesterday at the Hatton Garden Office relative to the pin, and addresssing one of the officers with his own particular dialect, asked, "If he could have a loan of the Inspector". He was informed that the owner of the pin was gone on a long voyage, and inquiries were making after some of his relatives. "Thunder and Turf", exclaimed Paddy, "sure didn't I find the pin, and isn't it my own property". Sure, would I send it to the pawnshop if I stole it, and isn't it a shame to rob me of it". He was informed that the law allowed its detention for a certain time. Paddy-Sure it has been kept for a certain time, and I am sorry now, that I din't sell it off my hands, and then what would you do. Inspector-that would be a felony and we would transport you. Paddy-Then you might as well transport us or hang us at once, as well as take away what belongs to us, whilst we're starving. It's like enough, when you've found the gentleman, he'll take the pin, whether it belongs to him or not, and give me nothing for finding it, shaking his head ; arrah, then I wisht I knew what I know now, and the devil a bit of it would I have send to the pawnshop wid the wife. Sure didn't I prove my honesty to send it for only 2s. , when, because my poor ould crature looked poor she was taken up as a theef, and if a dressed up vagabond was to offer it, the devil a bit would be suspected; so, you see, a rale theef would get the money, and a poor hard working honest man must take the trouble of finding, be taken to prison, pulled and hauled about from pillar to post, be insulted, and get no satisfaction at all, at all. Inspector-You may call again in a few days, and you may get something. Paddy; faith, and I won't, but I will go immadiately to Misther O'Connell, who knows more about the law than the whole kit of you put together, and shure it's himself that will help a poor countryman to his rights. Inspector-Do you think he will come here with you? Paddy-then its himself that would do that thing, and ye'll listen to him, if you don't listen to me; but wid all yere laughing, I don't care a pin about ye. Poor Paddy's visit caused considerable merriment, and he left the office, seriously expressing his determination to lay the case before "Misther O'Connell". Mary

April 9th 1838 From the Times Tipperary April 5th-Mr. Austin Cooper and Mr. G. Weyland were proceeding in a gig from Kilmore to the fair of Tipperary this morning. They were fired at by eight men. Mr. Cooper was shot dead, and Mr. Weyland severely wounded in the back. Mr. T. Cooper was riding behind the gig, fired at the villians, and it is hoped with effect, as blood was traced on the road. Mr. Cooper was a gentleman of the highest respectability, and beloved by his tenantry. The further particulars of this dreadful deed are not yet known. The magistrates of the neighbourhood have gone to the spot. A few days ago, Mr. Weylands house was attacked, and he was fired at several times. The first attack on Mr. Weyland was committed the day after Judge Moore left Clonmel. Mr. Cooper was one of the most extensive land agents in the county, and a gentleman of the highest disposition. County of Tipperary April 2nd 1838 It will be in the recollection of your readers, that a few years ago, several thousand persons congregrated together for the ostensible purpose of "Burying the tithes" at the Rock of Barnane, near the Devil's Bit. The chief actors in the scene were Robert White of Knocknerager, esq. a protestant gentleman, with the late Stephen Egan, of Roscrea (who supplied a splemdidly mounted coffin for the deceased) and other equally contemptible agitators. The grave being duly closed, and the cermonies concluded, the high and distinguished honour was conferred on Mr. White of being placed as sentinel on the spot as a reward for his patriotism. The duties of the sentinel had not been interfered with until this morning, when the celebrated commissioner of rebellion, Mr. P. Ryan, humanely determined on "relieving the guard". With that view, Mr. Ryan proceeded at an early hour to the burial ground, but was sorry to perceive that in the most unsoldier-like manner , White deserted his post and ran off. The commissioner gave chase in his best style, and after a short run succeeding in making his capture; and Mr. White after being marched a distance of 12 miles, now lies in gaol of this town as a prisoner, under a writ of rebellion for the years composition rent due to the rector of his parish. The fourth year's composition having come due in November last, Mr. Ryan has compounded his stock for the amount. Mr. White and his stock were brought in here together, a distance of 12 miles, without the slightest interruption, or annoyance, nor was the least degree of sympathy exhibited by the population for the trying and degraded position of the ex-sentinel. A house, the property of John. E. Grace, Esq, was maliciously consumed a few night ago, withing 100 yards of the town of Nenagh. A reward of 20s. has been offered by the Government for the apprehension and conviction of the incendiary. Mary

Reconcilitation of the Factions. 24-9-1828 From the Dublin Evening Post. The efforts of the Liberators have been and continue eminently successful in reconciling the factious disputes of the people. About 8,000 people assembled at New Inn, in the County of Tipperary, on Sunday morning, and entered into resolutions to keep the peace towards each other and all his Majesty's subjects. They had numerous amateur bands , who played "God save the King", and every man stood uncovered. They proceeded to Cahir, where they men 2,000 more, who entered into the same bonds of future good will, and separated in perfect order. >From a letter addressed to the Tipperary Free Press, we find, that in Killenaule about 30,000 people assembled from Cashel, Thurles, Clonoulty, Holycross, Boherlahan, Dualla, Fethard, Ballingarry, etc. where having effected the desired reconcillation, they departed, without the slightest confusion. They had numerous flags, bearing appropriate devices, such as "Long live the King"-"Peace and Unity" etc. The letter says, that ribands of all the colours of the rainbow were in requisition, and that many an orange streamer floated by the side of the green standard. >From a correspondent of the same journal, dated Templemore, we learn that a consourse of people, which he estimates at 15,000 people arrived from Borrisoleigh and the neighbouring counties. These are some of the fighting factions who for a long time have disturbed the peace of that neighbourhood, and having lately settled their own disgraceful disagreements , came to reconcile the the Cummins and the Darrigs, who, those years past, had, by their quarrels, brought reproach upon this town and neighbourhood, and had frequently sated their thirst for revenge by committing murder and spilling of blood,. They marched through the town, the leaders of the Borrisoleigh factions brought together the leaders of the factions opposed to each other here. They were addressed by several orators of their own class, who, if they boasted no polished eloquence, had the advantage of much common sense, employed in a good cause, the folly and wickedness of their former feuds were canvassed, and mutual wrongs and injuries forgiven; and after giving three cheers for the great peace maker O'Connell, they retired with most perfect quietness, determined to adhere to the solemn promises they had pledged.

Hi Scott, We've had some heavy rain in the past week and we now have lovely sunshine again, so no fall colours yet, everything is still very green, grass still growing, and in my garden I have plenty of flowers blooming, and more than plenty of weeds coming up. It will be October or later when the trees lose their leaves, and others change their colours.

Hello Mary, What an interesting email this is for at least a couple of reasons. Firstly, the Hogan Families - they must have been a feisty lot! As you know, I am descended from a Denis Hogan who was born "Tipperary" ca.1811, and who arrived in New South Wales as a convict in 1833/34 on "Parmelia" (2), and whose parentage I am unable to find. I wonder if Denis was related to the Hogans who received nine months' confinement, as Denis named his first son James, and his third son Timothy. I wonder if they are all related to my Denis? re the Carey name. Is Carey a common surname all over Ireland, or is it a "localised" name, i.e. mostly from Tipperary? My Denis Hogan married a Margaret Carey (Cary, Kary) who emigrated from London to New South Wales in 1834 on the "David Scott" (with her sister Julia), and who had at last 4 children by Denis Hogan and eventually married him two weeks after the baptism of their second son, John (my gt. grandfather). On Margaret's papers it says she came from Cork, but maybe that was only then port from which she left Ireland, rather than where she was born. Thank you for all the interesting emails you send regarding conditions in Ireland - it gives great background knowledge for those of us who are far away in distance and in time.

Hi Liz' I am going to the Library again in a couple weeks and will try and see if thereis a transcript of the trial for the Hogans mentioned in the piece below. You never know, it might give a placename, and they could be first cousins or related. I haven't given up on Denis yet, Its a pity the Nenagh Guardian wasn't in print then, its the best of the Tipp newspapers for names and places.
