    3. >From the Nenagh Guardian. 19th Oct. 1885. Mr. Edward G. Baird, who was for some years accountant at the Provincial Bank of Ireland at Templemore and much respected and esteemed there, has been appointed Manager of the Provincial Bank of Fermoy. A branch of the Munster and Leinster Bank will be opened in Nenagh on Monday week. Marriages. Oct. 15th John Moore, of Kilbannon, Ennis, son of John Moore, Esq. Coolfin, Banagher, to Dora Alicia, daughter of the late Michael Telford, Mota House, Ballinderry, Co. Tipperary. Oct. 15th Joshua Gardinder, Esq. District Inspector, RIC, Newport, to Alice, youngest daughter of the late John Hendy, esq. Baltinglass, and widow of the late Laurence Hargrove, Esq. Allendale House, Baltinglass. We are glad to note that Mr. William P. Coyne, son of Edward Coyne of this town, has successfully passed his second Arts examination in the Royal University of Ireland. At Roscrea Petty Sessions, John Treacy was fined 10/- and costs for assaulting a young man named Duggan, of Corville. Michael O'Brien, Publican, was fined £1 and costs for keeping his premises opened during prohibited hours. Edward Tuck was charged with using abusive language towards Patrick Cashin, by calling him an informer like Carey, and also a cow stealer. He was ordered to give bail to keep the peace for three years or a month in prison in default. The Rev. J.C. Triphook, formerly curate in Nenagh, has been appointed to a Parish in Clogher, near Enniskillen. He has held the post of resident preacher in Cashel Cathedral for some years past. We are glad to notice that Messrs Mark Quigley and Sons, painting contractors, Parsonstown, have been declared contractors for painting Newbridge and Mullingar Military Barracks. These contracts will enable them to give employment to some 50 journeymen, who would otherwise do little at this time of the year. At Nenagh Guardians, Relieving Officer Lee brought forward the case of a family of 12 named Carey, who had become wholly destitute, in consequence of being evicted from their holding at Foilduff, in the Abington division. The Chairman wished to know, in the absence of the Guardians of the division, what decision the board would come to. Mr. O'Meara asked the Relieving Officer if he had made himself acquainted with the surroundings of the case. Relieving Officer Lee replied that he had visited the place, and found the family had no place of living, as they had been evicted from their farm. Mr. Cooney asked to have the relief granted to them for a fortnight. Chairman-What amount will the board be satisfied to give?. Mr. Butler.-Anything less than a £1 per week is no good. Chairman-There has been no case like this before the Board since I became Chairman. Relieving Officer-Some time ago there were similar cases before the Board, in which relief to the amount of £1 a week was allowed to families who had been turned out of their holdings. The Board allowed £1 per week. 18th March 1872. Mr. J. Houston Sheehan, Clerk of Nenagh Union, attended today in the Board Room of the Workhouse, as Returning Officer, to make a scrutiny of the votes recorded of the Candidates of the three contested divisions. The results of the elections is that all the Guardians of last year continue in Office during the current year. Births. At Templemore Barracks, to the wife of Surgeon A. Humfrey, of the 98th regiment, a son. To the wife of Mr. T. McCarthy, Kilgurton, Ballymackey, a son. Mr. D. Darcy has bought a dwelling house at Cudville, Nenagh, for £70. Mr. Charles C. Foley was the auctioneer. As an illustration of the inveterate prevalence of the former evil, a correspondent mentions that, just now, "Doctor" Roughan, the bonesetter, and popular headmender for all Tipperary, has his hands full with three skulls, the sick owners of which live in the Drombane area near Thurles. Our correspondent makes the hopeful addendum that "Doctor" Roughan's three patients are progressing favourably under his celebrated restorative powers. The Templemore Town Commissioners have decided to present the family of the late John Connolly, Esq., with an address of condolence, illuminated and framed. Sub-Constable Kelleher had John Drennan summoned at Roscrea Petty Sessions for abuse and drunkeness. Complainant stated that when he was passing Drennan, he (Drennan) without any provocation, politely consigned the Sub-Constable to a place which would be a little to hot, to be altogether comfortable. Drennan stated in defence--"I was up all night going to America". The Magistrates, not accepting his plea, fined him 5/- and costs. The Nenagh Young Men's Christian and Literary Association adjourned its weekly meeting on Monday evening as a mark of respect to the late Mr. William Birney, whose melancholy death occurred last week. He was the eldest son of Dr. Adam Birney, of this town.
