18-1-1832 Limerick Chronicle. On Wed. morning a cruel and diabolical murder was committed in Templemore. The victim was a young man named Short, apprentice to a brazier in that town of the name of Gunning. While on business he was way-laid and murdered within a quarter of a mile of Templemore. His body was found soon after on the public road, and a deep wound over his temple. Same day James Cormick and Mrs Gunning were apprehended on suspicion of being concerned in the murder, and on Thursday an inquest was held on the body, when it appeared that the evening before the murder, Cormick was heard to say he would take Short's life, and that Mrs Gunning had requested another apprentice of her husband to fill a sack with 3lb. of molten lead, the instrument with which it is supposed the fatal deed was effected-that Cormick slept with the apprentice, and rose early in the morning, was absent for some time, and returned to bed again. The jury found a verdict of wilful murder against Mrs Gunning and James Cormick, who were send off yesterday morning to Clonmel Gaol, under an escort of the 74th Regiment. Mary
