Clonmel, in common with other
places in Ireland, experienced the full
rigor of the Penal Code, the senseless
brutality of which makes one doubt
if men possessed their full powers of
reason in those far-off days. During
the first great Volunteer Movement.
County Tipperary was prominently
represented, and the first Munster
Volunteer Review was held near
Clonmel in July, 1882. In this con-.
nection it is important to note that
the Grand Jury of Tipperary at the
Spring Assizes, 1882, passed the fol-
lowing resolution-"That the King,
Lords and Commons of Ireland, are
the only power competent to make
laws to bind this kingdom, and that
every attempt by any other body of
men to exercise this right is uncon-
stitutional and grievance. Signed
Francis Mathew, Sheriff" When the
infamous Union was proposed a petit
tion against such a measure was for
/ warded, to the Irish House of Com
mons, from Clonmel; but the base
bargain was already made, and pray
ers were of little avail. What has
been described as the most memo
rable episode in the local history of
Clonmel, was the execution of the
Rev. Nicholas Sheehy, the Parish
Priest of Clogheen. This event took
place on the 18th of March, 1866, and
the record of the tragic happening is
still fresh in the memory of the towns
people.
In the beginning of the nineteenth
century, the bacon, brewing and dis
tilling industries attained consider
able degree of prosperity. The popu-
lation and wealth also increased at
this time, and Halls Scenery of Ire
land" says that Clonmel is conspicu-
GUS for its prosperity, being the great
est outlet for the produce of County
Tipperary. The introduction of the
railway did not prove very beneficial
to the trade of Clonmel, but the pres
ent great industrial development it is
hoped will bring renewed strength to
the dormant manufactures of the
town.
In short survey such as this, one
can but cast f1eeting glance at the
past varying fortunes of Clonmel, and
much material has of necessity been
omitted. Clonmel has suffered much
from the varying causes that have
combined to deplete the trade and
manufactures of the provincial towns
of Ireland; but it may be expected
that under native legislature these
causes will disappear, and Clonmel
will, in common with the remainder
of the country, experience the benefi.
cent results that must follow the es.
tablishment of an Irish Parliament
for Irish affairs. The student of Tip
perary history will find in Father
Burke's history of Clonmel as com
plete record as it is possible to com
pile of Clonmel, it's neighborhood, and
its notable persons born in its vicin
ity. J.J. o. N.

How many go forth at morning

How many go forth at morning
Who never come home at night,
And hearts have broken for harsh
words spoken
That sorrow can never set right.
We have careful thought for the
stranger
And smiles for the sometime guest
But oft for our own the bitter tone,
Though we love our own the best.

Napoleon did not stay long in Elba.
