Morley. Thomas Lyons, Thomas Wal
dron, John Grogan, all residing in the
Ballyhaunis district.
On the sitting fthe court evidence
was given for the prosecution.
Mr.. Kirwan said he did not intend to
examine any witnesses for the defense.
He delivered a forcible and argumen-
tative address in favor of his clients
The prosecution, he contended, arose
from desire on the part of the govern
ment to kill the peoples organization
and so leave the country a their mercy.
1t was a stand-up fight between the
government and the United Irish
League, which was trying to safeguard
the rights of the people. He. asked the
court to dismiss the case brought
against his clients.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Kirwans re-
marks there was applause in court,
where, ythat time, a considerable
number of peopel were assembled.
Mr.. Morphy replied at length.
The chairman announced that in the
case of Messrs. Morley and Lyons, the
bench had decided upon convicting, and
they sentenced them to three months
Imprisonment each, with hard labor.
The charges against Messrs Waldron
and Grogan were dismissed.
Mr.. Kirwan said in the case of Mich
ael Morley. one of the defendants con-
victed and directed to be imprisoned
| with hard labor, he (Mr Kirwan) had
respectfully to ask the magistrates to
alter the sentence, so far as the con-
dition relating to hard labor was con-
| cerned. The grounds on which he
made the application were that for
some time PASTOR over six weeks-he
had been under the doctors care. He
had been attended by Drs. Mcguire and
| Cream, and at the present moment was
in very bad state of health. For this
! reason he would ask their worships to
change the sentence, so far as hard la
| Dor was concerned.
| Mr.. Harrel said they would not alter
the sentence, but they would attach
note to their warrant requesting the
governor of the prison to have the at
| tention of the prison doctor drawn to
Morley's condition.
| The prisoners were then removed
| from court, and were conveyed to
| Castelar, prison by the p. M train.
