On the morning of March q it, was
reported to the police, at Delgany, that
Il desperate assault had been made on
a farmer named Charles Ward during
the previous night, at his residence,
Carrgower; and the subsequent in
vestigation proved that, unfortunately,
the report was true. Mr.. Ward was
well known in North Wicklow, being
identified with hunts. ploughing match
es, and Celtic sports, and was univer-
sally popular. 1t appears that, for the
past five months, laborer from Kill
dare or Dublin, who gave his name as
Hugh Kennedy, had been working on
Wards farm; and on the above even
ing, an alteration, the details of
which have not transpired, is alleged
to have taken place between them;
and, some little time after, Ward was
found lying against the ditch of the
haggard, badly injured about the head
and quite unconscious, a crowbar, n
hay fork, and stone with blood on
it being close to him. A messenger
was despatched to Delgany for Father
Hurley, who at once attended; and to
Newtownmountkennedy for DR.. Love
rock, who also arrived during the
night, and found Ward unconscious.
The injured man fingered till the after
noon of the Goth, when he died. Ken
nedy had absconded, but was traced
to Dublin, where he wa. arrested in
the Westland Row railway station. He
claimed that he had acted in self
defense,
