| A number of the tenants on the
| estate of Lord Cork, situated conve-
| nient to Brosna. are reported to have
| been writted for non-payment of rents
The tenants recently offered twenty

negotiations did not succeed. A con-
siderable portion of the property, which
is very extensive, is mountainous and
unproductive.
At the last meeting of the East
Kerry Executive of the United Irish
League, held at Castleisland, Mr.. John
| Murphy, NJ. P. presided. Mr.. e. O'Sul-
! livan, secretary, was also present. Del
egates attended from Killarney, Cas-
| tleisland, Fries, Cordial, Ballymacelli-
got, Brosna, Killintierna, Scartaglin
| and Barraduff. Mr.. John Murphy, M.
| p, said they all knew how the evicted
tenants had been created by those hav-
| ing the administration of the Land
Act; and the result was that every
single evicted tenant in the County
| Kerry practically had been entirely
| neglected (cheers). He wished to call
attention to the memorable fight on
the Collis Sandes estate at Brosna.
The fight resulted in a victory for
the tenants, and that ought to be an
object lesson for them all; because,

sistance. guided by their priests and
we'll united themselves, the tenants
succeeded in obtaining Justice.
