was held on April Dist, in Ramsgrapge,
where it had been decided to lodge the
rents under the usual circumstances, in
the Munster and Leinster Bank. The
meeting was held in st. Joseph'e hall,
Ramsgrange. The first resolution was
proposed by Mr.. Simon Murphy, of Hag-
gard, and was seconded by Mr.. Hen
messy, of Battlestown, and was to the ef-
feet that the Templemore tenants adhere
to their original resolution of demanding
Is per cent reduction in their rents, as
this reduction is required owing to the
severe depression in cattle and farm pro-
duce of the past season, which was the
most severe the tenants met with since
1879. The next resolution was proposed
by Mr.. Arthur Fenton, of Coleman, Ar
thurstown, and was seconded by Mr..
James Carroll, of Coole. to the effect
that the tenants proceeded against by
Lord Templemore should, in accordance
with a former resolution, lodge their
rents in the hands of trustees, less the
abatement asked for, as warranty of
good faith in the demand for the abate-
ment. This resolution was passed unani-
mously.
