Rice stated the case for the deputation,
and his statement was supported by
| Rev. Canon Moore, rector OF BrlgoWn'
Mr.. w. P. O'Brien, j. P; Mr. Thomas
/ Roche and Mr.. Skinner, solicitor. The
! council unanimously passed a resoIu-
| tion asking for the loan as requested.
At a meeting of the Castle Blayney
| board of guardians, Dr. Mcbride
/ Crossmaglen wrote that his attention
| had been called to a house occupied
by a Henry Mines in Glasdrummond
the slates and roofs of which were IN
most dangerous condition the roof
being propped up by supports from the
floor. He recommended that the house
should cease to be occupied as fit for
human ha bitat IN. 1t appears from
statements made that Mines is 107
years of age. has been in receipt or
outdoor relief for a number of years,
and that the house is his own prop
erty. which he refuses to leave. The
board decided not to carry out the
recommendation of the doctor. as they
considered to DO so would be hard
ship on the old fellow.
On Friday morning information was
conveyed to the police barracks,
Omagh, that the Catholic church had
been broken into either the previous
night or that morning. On going to
the place Sergeant Murray ard Ser
geant Donnelly and a number of men
discovered that one Of the windows in
the sacristy had been broken. a fur
ther examination of the place showed
that a small box had been broken open,
evidently with the intention of a rob-
berry being committed. Fortunately 1t
was empty and the thief or thieves
We're therefore, disappointed in their
search. AS far as can be seen, nothing
else has been touched. The sacred
building was closed about 1880 on
Thursday night. and it is conjectured
that the party who committed the
deed must have been concealed inside.
On Friday last, at Vinestown, Down
patrick. was inferred Michael O'Han-
Ion, we'll known and respected through
out the north and in England as a de-
voted and fearless Irjshman in the
days of the early SOS. He was amongst
those who shared the prison cell for
Ireland, having been incarcerated In
Mountjoy for some years. He was an
active and earnest worker in every
movement since the advancement o:
Irish nationality, and no later than
the 2Srd of November, he presided over
a very large meeting in Downpatrick,
commemorative of the Manchester
martyrs. The funeral was largely at
tended by representatives of the sur
rounding counties land in its numbers
spoke eloquently of the sympathy and
respect which the deceased gentle
mans demise created.
On Wednesday James M'Cann was
indicted in Green street before Mr.
Justice Andrews and a county jury,
for .he willful murder of his wife on
the 4th of November, at their residence,
> Rathmines avenue. Dublin. After
about an hours deliberation the jury
could not agree, and the prisoner was
put back for trial a the next commits
sion.
On Tuesday a body of tenants on the
Ashley estate, near BaIlaghadereen, |
attended in that town in response to
an invitation to pay their rents. They
demanded a reduction of 6s Sd in the |
E, but as they were met in a concilia- |
tory spirit by the agent, they accepted !
a lesser amount. The tenants who |
had their second judicial term fixed !
accepted sum of is in the G, and
those who had not were offered and |
5s in the G. This is regarded |
as great victory for the tenants, and |
as result of the fight that is being |
Waged by the tenants on the neighbor-
ing estate. .l-
