The Freeman's Journal states that on the prisoner
Curran being taken down stairs to the cell after the
examination, on Saturday, vast crowds assembled
in Dame-street and the places from which a view
could be obtained of the prisoner when he would
be conducted to the police van that was in waiting
at the end of Exchange-court. The steps and rail-
ings of the City-hall were densely thronged, and
all the windows of the houses in the locality were
occupied. A large detachment of the police, under
the direction of Mr. Inspector Donovan, had much
difficulty in keeping the passage clear. Amongst
those assembled was the wife of the prisoner. She
is an exceedingly good-looking woman, and appa-
rently not more than 23 years of age. At a guar-
tea past three o'clock the prisoner was conducted
from the cell to the police van, and when he was
recognised he was received with a long shout or
yell, which was continued until he was placed in
the van, which drove off to Kilmainham Prison soon
afterwards. He was placed in one of the ordinary
cells. No strangers were allowed to hold any
intercourse with him, but, from all that could be
learned on Sunday, whenever he spoke of the
offence of which he stands charged he stoutly asser-
ted his innocence. Miss golly arrived in town
from the country on Thursday, in company with
her mother, apparently much improved in health.
On Friday, when the inspection of carmen was
taking place, she remained in one of the offices of the
Commissioners of Police, whichcommanded a viewiof
the inner Castle-yard, and although car-drivers
numbering some hundreds had been paraded, sheh
did not betray the slightest emotion. But at t
de
time the prisoner Curran was brought into
_the yar
in custody of Craven, Meyers, Doyle, and Da.wson,
of the G Division, se became fearfully agitated,
and the horrors of " the terrible night" seemed to

It is stated that the lady, who is now in town under
the care of her mother, is so ill as to require the
greatest care and attention, and for this reason it
will be absolutely necessary for the authorities to
issue such instructions as will keep the Head office
perfectly clear of idlers and sight-seers on Friday
next, when it is to be hoped the lady's health will
be so far improved as to enable her on that day to
be present to give her evidence.
The arrest and examination of Curran was the
all-absorbing topic through the city on Sunday, and
the greatest excitement prevails amongst every class
of the community on the subject. The police have
not relaxed their efforts in the least in searching
for evidence, and it is stated that the cabmen Fill
lodge the £25 which they have offered as a rewardfor the apprehension and conviction of the criminal
n
who committed the unmanly and brutal outrage
a defenceless lady confided to his charge.
