7-4-1831 From the Times A family Quarrel-At the Clonmel assizes, Michael Bevan, Esq, was indicted for an assault on Joseph Cooke, Esq. at Cordangan. Mr. Cooke was examined on the trial, and admitted that Mr. Bevan was his brother-inlaw, and that he lived with his sister for 22 years, but that they were not really man and wife. The examination of this witness is not calculated for publication. Mrs. Bevans, he stated, was now concealed from her husband. Mr. Bevan was found guilty of the assault, but the affair was afterwards arranged between him and Mr. Cooke, by Mr. Bevan consenting to allow his wife 300/. A year. Mr. Bevan was then let out on his own recognizance. 7-5-1833 Fatel Duel This morning at 6 O'Clock a hostile meeting took place between John Power White Esq, a young law student, son of Power White, a gentleman of considerable property resident at Golden, Co. Tipperary and ? Weldon, Esq. Of County Carlow, (Formerly a medical student of the name of Dooley who had taken the patric? Of Weldon with a property of 6000/. ) The affair arose out of a trifling dispute at the theatre, which led to a cutting in the street, and as subsequent open defiance of each other last night at Shades Tavern , College Green, where Mr. Weldon happened to from one at a drinking party, and returned a chuff answer to Mr. White, who ventured to address him on entering. Mr. White then called him a blackguard, coward, etc. and was instantly challenged by Mr. Weldon. The affair was brought to a fatal termination this morning, at Sally-Park, adjoining the Grand Canal, at Parnell Bridge. The Hon. Edward Butler, son of Lord Dunboyne, was second to Mr. White, and a Mr. Bodkin, of Galway was second to Mr. Weldon. Both seconds stepped 12 long paces, linked arm in arm; the measured space was 16 yards, east and west. The sun was obscure at this hour, and both parties were on equal footin as to light and level. I have just been on the ground (The reporter not me). It appears that both parties were very difficult to be pleased, and tried several positions in the field ere they could determine on a fair spot. They at first stood at one spot, and were preparing to fire when it was discovered that two tall chimneys of a distillery a pair of horns in the horizan behind the head of one of the principals, this ground was therefore abandoned at once. The parties fired by signal, and almost together, when a ball passed through Mr. Whites forehead just above his right eye. He dropped dead on the instant, and the seconds absconded. The Coroners, Patley? and M'Carthy, immediately summoned a jury, and viewed the body. Little was elicited, except the unfortunate youth who lay dead at their feet, had first come in contact with his opponent as "Friends" of other parties, whom they had reconciled but at the expense of an misunderstanding between themselves, as very frequently happens amongst Irish seconds ; also that Mr. White had been second to the Hon. Mr. Butler on a previous occasion, when the latter went out with Captain O'Dogherty. This duel was fought close beside the spot where young Mr. O'Grady was shot in a duel last year by Captain Smith. It is said that Mr. Weldon is very eccentric-in fact a little touched 18-3-1833 Clonmel Herald County of Tipperary Calendar-Spring Assizes.

Three murders. In our last we gave account of the riotous and outrageous conduct of the people on Wed. last at the steeplechase, at Turtola outside Thurles. Three men, two of them being of the name of Ryan were on their way home waylaid, and at the back of Mr. Langley's Orchard, at Archerstown, set on so violently that the two men of the name of Ryan were killed, and the other so savagely beaten, he has since died. One of the Ryans was from Kyle, his skull dreadfully fractured. The bodies were found in a ditch, outside the orchard already alluded to. It was remarked by the gentleman who intended to have joined the steeplechase on Wed. that the country people had pistols under their great-coats; and when the latter appeared to wish to provoke a fray by throwing stones the former prudently gave up their sport and returned home.
