  • 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.

I joined the Irish Volunteers in Cast lebar in 1916 where I was then employed as a shop assistant. Michael McHugh was O/C of the Volunteers there then. They had no arms of any nature and did not take any action during the Rebellion. A number of the Westport men were arrsted after the Rebellion as they had held a parade on the Sunday unaware that the Rebellion had ended the previous day. This was a public parade through the town.

The Miners Walk is an important feature also. For such a tiny village there is a plethora of amenity developments to enjoy. Thank you for the completed questionnaire and sketch map, both facilitated adjudication. A work programme for the next three or five years? If so do let us have a photocopy of the main features of the work programme with next year's application. THE BUILT ENVIRONMENT The majority of buildings within Knockvicar are well presented; however, a rusted roof which can be seen beyond the bridge in Knockvicar needs to upgraded as a matter of urgency. The Post Office looks well. Well done on the work of the Fas scheme regarding stone wall construction. Be sure to keep them clear of excess growth and weeds etc. LANDSCAPING The landscaped area at the bridge was in full bloom during adjudication and looked well.
