MEATH.
1t is with regret we announce the
death, which occurred on December
S0th, of the Very Rev. Thomas Far
reilly, D. d., and V. c., Meath, who for
many years filed with singular ability
the important office of Bursar in the
College Of Maynooth. DIR. Farrelly,
was native OF the diocese or Meath,
and was born in 1914 at Ballintubber,
near Kells. His preparatory studies
for admission TO college were made at
Kells. Trim, and at the diocesan SEM
inary of ST. FInian's, Navan. He en-
tered Maynooth in 1887 for the logic
al ~
ordinary college course he was appoint
cd to the Dunboyne establishment and
here, too, no won the highest acade
mical honors. In June, 1915, having
for two years previously acted as assls-
tant, he was appointed to the office OF
bursar, held to that date since it was
vacated in 1S4l by the Rev. John Fin
nerty, late Bishop OF Madras, by Very
Rev. Laurence Ranehau, vice president,
That office he filed till October, 1882,
In 1875 he was relieved Of some OF his
onerOus duties by the appointment of a
minister or assistant bursar. But find
ing that his failing health even with
this aid no longer permitted him to per
form the duties OF his office, he tender
ed his resignation to the trustees Of the
college. On January 2nd his remains
were Inferred in the college seminary,
Maynooth The interment WAS pre-"
coded by solemn requiem office and
mass in the new colleges chapel,
ROSCOMMON.
The police authorities are working
the Star Chamber inquiry in Castlerea
very energetically. A large number Of
the tenants on the De Freyne property
have received Bummonses TO present
themselves for examination. Lin some
cases the tenants have attended and
have gone to jail for refusing to answer
the questions put to them, while others
have not come at all. Those who have
not come OF their own accord are
brought BY the police, and as the De
Freyne estate is a considerable distance
from the town, the police are obliged TO
employ cars, which gives rise to deal
of trouble and annoyance that they
would seemingly like to avoid. Three
of the tenants named Harte, Kelly and
Bairne were on New Years eve con
veyed by the mail train to Castlebar
Jail for refusing To give evidence.
TIPPERARY.
On January ri, Messrs. Patrick
O'Brien, M. F., John Cullinane and l..
Walsh, Cashel Sentinel, who have been
committed to Tullamore prison for
various terms of Imprisonment in con-
nection with the Tipperarv conspiracy
trials, we're visited bv the chaplain.
Rev. Father Bracken, and DR.. Moor
head, J. 2, All these are looking we'll,
and bear their imprisonment with little
concern. Mr.. O Brien, who could not,
at first. partake Of the prison fare, is
now able to eat fairly we'll. The poll
tical prisoners are still emDloYed at
sack making, and this they seem to feel
more, as 1t entails more confinement
than any of the other prison labors.
They expressed their determination,
however, to make no complaint. Mr..
McEnery also receives regular visits,
and notwithstanding his long confine-
ment and the exceptional seventies
inflicted on him, be looks we'll, and is
in the best Of spirits.
