Tipperary News Part 6
Clonmel Advertiser. 20-4-1822 We regret having to mention a cruel and barbarous murder, attended with circumstances of great audacity, that has taken place on the borders of Tipperary and Kilkenny. A farmer of the name of Morris, at Killemry, near Nine-Mile-House, having become obnoxious to the public disturbers, received a threatening notice some short time back, he having lately come to reside there. On Wednesday night last a cow of his was driven into the bog, where she perished; on Thursday morning he sent two servants, a male and female, to the bog, the male servant to skin the cow and the female to assist him; but while the woman went for a pail of water, three ruffians came, and each of them discharged their arms at him, and lodged several balls and slugs in his body, and then went off. This occurred about midday. No one dared to interfere, either for the prevention of this crime, or to follow in pursuit of the murderers. The sufferer was quite a youth, and had committed no offence, even against the banditti, but that of doing his master’s business. Clonmel Advertiser 24-8-1835 Last Saturday, being the fair day at Carrick-on-Suir, and also a holiday in the Roman Catholic Church, an immense assemblage of the peasantry poured into the town at an early hour from all directions of the surrounding country. The show of cattle was was by no means inferior-but the only disposable commodity , for which a brisk demand appeared evidently conspicuous, was for Feehans brown stout. -
These Are the Future Leaders of Ulster If the St Andrews Agreement Is Endorsed
The Burning Bush—Online article archive These are the future leaders of Ulster if the St Andrews Agreement is endorsed “The Burning Bush” has only two more issues to go after this current edition, before its witness concludes. It has sought to warn its readers of the wickedness and com- promise taking place within “church and state”, since its first edition back in March 1970. The issues facing Christians were comparatively plain and simple back then, or so it seems now on reflection. Today, however, the confusion that we sought to combat McGuinness (far right) in IRA uniform at the funeral of fellow within the ranks of the ecumenical churches and organi- IRA man and close friend Colm sations, seems to have spread to the ranks of those who, Keenan in 1972 over the years, have been engaged in opposing the reli- gious and political sell-out. The reaction to the St Andrews Agreement has shown that to be so. It is an agreement, when stripped of all its legal jargon and political frills, that will place an unrepentant murderer in co-leadership of Northern Ireland. How unthinkable such a notion was back in 1970! Today we are told, it is both thinkable and exceeding wise! In an effort to refocus the minds and hearts of Christians we publish some well- established facts about those whom the St Andrews Agreement would have us choose and submit to and make masters of our destiny and that of our children. By the blessing of God, may a consideration of these facts awaken the slumbering soul of Ulster Protestantism. -
A Comparative Study of Extremism Within Nationalist Movements
A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF EXTREMISM WITHIN NATIONALIST MOVEMENTS IN THE UNITED KINGDOM AND SPAIN by Ashton Croft Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for Departmental Honors in the Department of History Texas Christian University Fort Worth, Texas 22 April 2019 Croft 1 A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF EXTREMISM WITHIN NATIONALIST MOVEMENTS IN THE UNITED KINGDOM AND SPAIN Project Approved: Supervising Professor: William Meier, Ph.D. Department of History Jodi Campbell, Ph.D. Department of History Eric Cox, Ph.D. Department of Political Science Croft 2 ABSTRACT Nationalism in nations without statehood is common throughout history, although what nationalism leads to differs. In the cases of the United Kingdom and Spain, these effects ranged in various forms from extremism to cultural movements. In this paper, I will examine the effects of extremists within the nationalism movement and their overall effects on societies and the imagined communities within the respective states. I will also compare the actions of extremist factions, such as the Irish Republican Army (IRA), the Basque Euskadi Ta Askatasuna (ETA), and the Scottish National Liberation Army (SNLA), and examine what strategies worked for the various nationalist movements at what points, as well as how the movements connected their motives and actions to historical memory. Many of the groups appealed to a wider “imagined community” based on constructing a shared history of nationhood. For example, violence was most effective when it directly targeted oppressors, but it did not work when civilians were harmed. Additionally, organizations that tied rhetoric and acts back to actual histories of oppression or of autonomy tended to garner more widespread support than others. -

I attach a copy of a recent FCO •background brief• on the international contacts of the Provisional IRA and also Sinn Fein. This was issued last month (this copy in fact was given to me by a colleague in the Danish Embassy; however, such background briefs are readily available and do not carry any security classification). 2. While the most interesting feature of the brief is~ perhaps, the timing of its issue and its reflection of British current concern at Sinn Fein's international contacts, it seems to me that there are one or two statements in the brief which could be misconstrued. In particular, I am struck by the following references: Page 1, paragraph 1 •rt derives financial and other assistance from Irish expatriate corrrnunities which accept its claim to be the champion of Irish nationalism•. -
WEEKLY BULLETIN 1. During the First Hunger Strike a Weekly Bulletin
) NORTHERN IRELAND OFFICE PROTESTS AND SECOND HUNGER STRIKE - WEEKLY BULLETI N 1 . During the first hunger strike a weekly bulletin was c irculated giving a summary of the preceding week ' s events in the prisons , in the Department, in community and political life. It is intended to repeat this exercise in connection with the second strike. As before , t he bulletin will be a joint production involving Prisons Administration Division (1) , Belfast , Liaison Staff (Belfast) and Political Affairs Division (Belfast). Each Division will, of course, continue day- to- day and operational reporting with a generally more limited circulation. The format of this bulletin will be essentially the same as last time but it will now be issued on Thursdays and not Fridays as previously. This is to ensure that all of our distant recepients should have their copies before the weekend. The period covered in this bulletin is from before the strike to 0900 hours on Thursday 5 March . PRISON DEVELOPMENTS 2.1 Maze Hunger Strike On Sunday 1 March, Robert Gerard Sands, nc. of the PIRA prisoners at Maze, refused breakfast and announced that he was now launching a second hunger strike. His determination to do so had been known since early January but, presumably for tactical reasons , he had delayed his action for some time. On 5 February a statement attributed to the Maze and Armagh prisoners had given advance public warning of the onset of a new strike: - "Hunger strikes to the death , if necessary, will begin from March 1 , the fifth anniversary of the withdrawal of political status in the H Blocks and Armagh jailll. -

Heritage, History & Memory Project (Workshop 1) The Social, Economic & Political background to the ‘Long 60s’ A presentation by Kevin Meagher followed by a general discussion compiled by Michael Hall ISLAND 113 PAMPHLETS 1 Published February 2019 by Island Publications 132 Serpentine Road, Newtownabbey BT36 7JQ © Michael Hall 2019 [email protected] http://cain.ulst.ac.uk/islandpublications The Fellowship of Messines Association gratefully acknowledge the support they have received from the Heritage Lottery Fund for their Heritage, History & Memory Project and the associated publications Printed by Regency Press, Belfast 2 Introduction The Fellowship of Messines Association was formed in May 2002 by a diverse group of individuals from Loyalist, Republican and Trade Union backgrounds, united in their realisation of the need to confront sectarianism in our society as a necessary means to realistic peace-building. The project also engages young people and new citizens on themes of citizenship and cultural and political identity. In 2018 the Association initiated its ‘Heritage, History & Memory Project’. For the inaugural launch of this project it was decided to focus on the period of the 1960s, the Civil Rights Movement, and the early stages of ‘Troubles’. To accomplish this, it was agreed to host a series of six workshops, looking at different aspects of that period, with each workshop developing on from the previous one. The format for each workshop would comprise a presentation by a respected commentator/historian, which would then be followed by a general discussion involving people from diverse political backgrounds, who would be encouraged to share not only their thoughts on the presentation, but their own experiences and memories of the period under discussion. -
