26th. Oct. 1874. Two tramps named Woods and Black, who threw a stone through the window of Borrisokane Workhouse, after Mr. Russell had refused them admission, were sentenced to two months in Nenagh Gaol. It didn't seem to fret them in the least as they left the dock laughing. During the hearing of the case, Mr. Russell informed the bench that he had good reason to believe that they were either deserters or "drummed outs" from some Regiment. They knew and could whistle, all the regimental calls, but unfortunately there are now no deserters inserted in the police "Hue and Cry".

He was descended from a brother of O'Dwyer, the last chief of Kilnamanagh, whose praises are sung in "Sean O'Duibhir a Gleanna". He was nephew of General Dwyer of Ballyquirke Castle near Borrisokane.

His Worship said he would adjourn the case for a month to see how he would behave in the meantime. Constable Palmer, of Lisduff charged John Ryan, of Rathnavogue, at Moneygall Petty Sessions, with selling liquor without a licence. The constable swore that at one time he found 32 empty porter bottles in Ryan's house. He had Ned Burns, James Doyle and Denis Connolly summoned for being on the premises at the time. Each of these swore positively that they had paid no money for the liquor. It was only Ryan's wife's goodness that gave it to them, as they were up at a wake in the country. The Magistrates, dismissing the case warned Ryan to be cautious in the future, and that he had a very narrow escape. At a meeting of the Roscrea Board of Guardians, clothing to the value of 10/- was ordered to be purchased for Mary McLoughlin, a schoolgirl, who is going out to service. 17th March 1873.

Good morning all, I am still looking for the family of my convict Denis Hogan who was tried in Tipperary - I presume the township - and sentenced 13 March, 1833, for 7 years for manslaughter, and sent to New South Wales on the "Parmelia" (2) in 1833. I have notes on his life here in Australia, and on his wife and his surviving children, my gt. grandfather being one of them, but no information on the names of his parents, or where he was born in Ireland. If there are any new researchers delving into this man, or if anyone knows of his Irish family, I would be delighted to hear from them. Elizabeth Walker, Lake Macquarie, N.S.W. Australia.
