late Intsiiitart, nor herself, made any search after
those men by whom they had he.en robbed," for
fear would. not let them."

Several witnesses attempted to establish an
alibi, but Baron M'CLELLANn having summed up
thy evidence, the Jury returned a-verilict of—
Guilty against both prisoners.
James Jordan was then placed at the bar. The
prisoner was indicted for that he, on the 11th day
of November, in the second year of the reign of
his present Majesty, at G landuff, in the county
of Limerick, did feloniously take from the
person of George Sparling, two pistols, his pro-
perty.—The prisoner pleaded Not Guilty.
Mr. Sparling was examined and supported the
indictment, but bad some hesitation in saying
decidedly that the prisoner at the bar was
one of the. three men who attacked him ; he,
however, said that he was certain the prisoner
was one of them. The case closed, and nothing
was elicited on the defence to shake the testi-

mony ; but, just as the learned Judge was about
tb charge the Jury, one of them begged to ask
the witneas why it. was he did not give a di-
rect answer as to the prisoner's identity, and to
do so then, if he could. The witness again paused
for some time, and at length said, that his reason
was "-for fear he should not be -certain"—the
Solicitor-General having asked him had he doubt,
and the witness having acquiesced, the Learned
Judge immediately observed, that the prisoner
should have the benefit of that doubt, and direct-
ed the Jury to acquit him.

EXECUTION.—This day, at two o'clock, McNa-
mara and Molony were conveyed to Gallows-
green, where they suffered the awful sentence
of the law, for the murder of Mrs. Torrance ;
while the platform and usual apparatus were
getting ready, both those unfortunate men, at
the instance of the respectable Clergyman in
!attendance) addressed the immense populace
n a few words, (who for that purpose were
permitted to approach near the gallows), each
acknowledging the justness of his sentence.
M‘Namara mast emphatically called upon
them " to take warning by his untimely fate."
" I am, (said he), justly cut off in the mid-
dle of life. I, therefore, warn you to abstain
from nightly meetings, and all other illegal acts ;
the danger of which, I, now, when too late,
clearly see. I fergive all the world, and am sin-
cerely sorry for the improper expressions which I
used in the Court after my conviction." The
Cart having been drawn off, they were launched
into eternity, and after hanging the usual time,
were cut down, and their bodies left at the coun-
ty of Limerick Hospital for dissection.
