On Saturday evening, October Oath, a
party, visited the house of a respectable
farmer named Michael O'Connell, of
Lisagoheeny, near Ballyduff, and took
away gun which they found there.
One of the party had gun, another an
old sword, and another carried a scythe.
Mr.. Irwin, D. l.. Listowe], visited the
scene of the outrage on the following
Tuesday, accompanied by Sergeant
Fay, Ballyduff, but, of course, as usual
in such cases, no arrests have been
made. Every one is surprised that Mr..
|OtConnell's house should have been
''raided," because he is, and has always
been, in sympathy with the popular
cause. He has been for many years a
Poor Law Guardian, and for some time
duflng the Land and National League
agitation he was Vice President of the
Ballyduff Branch of the national league.
