through the village above meaiioned. escor,ins
voters on the property Of the Marquis Of Cos
nyngham. As they were passing through the
village, the Court House was occupied by .
great number of persons, including several
magistrates Of the county, several clergymen,
and several freeholders. The people 10 the
village hissed and hooied Lord Conyngbam's
voters. and come state that stones were thrown;
out we have not heard the fact on sufficient
authority to render il positive. Others allege
tnat u was not until second attempt was
made to rescue the voters, and the gun of one
OF the soldiers smashed with stone. that the
officer gave orders to ERE. II would appear
ihaf mnrderous FIRE was at once opened on
the people, and that the volley was discharged
IN two dlTectiOns-one towards the chapel-
the other down the street ofihe village, where
a large police force. consisting Of forty men
were stationed at the time. The noise Of the
firing withdrew the occupants. of the Cour
House from the building. They rushed into
the street, and to their mex pressible horror
they found FIVE Of their fellow counirymer
shot dead, and several others wounded. We
have heard that the number Of dead exceeds
eight, and the number Of wounded had moi
been ascertained when our informant left
Those who were recognized are
Thomas Ryan, Castlecrine, not married
dead.
James Frawley, New Park, not married
dead.
James Casey, Tralee, not married, dead.
Michael Coleman, Tralee, not married, dead
jeremiah Frawley, Newmarket, not married
dead.
John Reilly, Bunratty, married, and large
family.
The majority of these were voters; ant
nearly all were men in comfortable circum
stances as farmers. The rumor, as we have
stated, in Six-mile bridge, was that the order
to Ere had been given by the officer. 1t is i'm
possible to describe the excitement which pre-
vailed. The people were unarmed; in fact, il
is believed that in the entire barony there are
not two stands of arms.
Mr. James Frost, of Bunker's Hill, presided
in the Court House, and he was peremptori-
ly called upon to stop the polling while so
many Of the people lay dead in the street,
There was no polling up to o'clock p. M
After this frightful deed of blood, special
messenger was dispatched to this garrison fol
more troops, when the Horse Artillery, and
1r ,i D.
sent out. MIR. Cronin, r. NJ, was present.
and stated he gave no orders to fire, nor were
the muskets Of the soldiery and police under
his command loaded. The Rev. Mr.. Clune
P. p, was hit in the hat with spent ball -
Several Of the clergy Of the district were pre-.
sent, AMI did what they could to allay the ex-
citement. .-
