A, few days ago a fanner near Templemore died of taking
horse medicine instead of salts, the latter of which he had bought
for himself, the former for his horse ; but, either by design or acci-
dent, the deleterious drug vs. administered to himself, of which he
died. Some short time before, while he and his wife lay in bed. an
attempt was made to pour boiling led 'lnto his ear, but the poor
man was persuaded this was the work of the fairies ! On his death
by the substitution of the horse.medicine for his salts, an inquest
was held on the body, bat nothing could be proved to bring home
guilt to any party.—Closmel Tapir.
