    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.

'B' Captain Company 1st Battalion, 3rd Tipperary Brigade, 1917-1921. Subject. Fethard Company Irish Volunteers, Co. Tipperary, 1917-1921. Conditions, if any, Stipulated by Witness. Nil S.2718 File No. FormB.S.M.2 STATEMENT BY PATRICK RYAN, Kerry St.. Fethard, Co. Tipperary, Captain 'B' Company, 1st Battn., 3rd Tipperary Brigade. On a night in the early summer of 1917 I attended a meeting which was held in a place called Downey's Barn at Clamps Castle, Fethard. This meeting was called for the purpose of organising an Irish Volunteer company in Fethard and district, and, if I mistake not, the late Paddy Hogan of Cashel, afterwards Commandant of the 2nd Battalion, Was one of those principally concerned In arranging the meeting. He was certainly present that night and was, as far as I can now remember, the principal speaker. The meeting itself was a small one, as for obvious reasons only a selected number of men were invited to attend. I should say, however, that there were about twenty men present, all of whom agreed to become members of the Volunteer organisation In the election of officers which followed I was elected as Captain of the company, James Keating of Brookhill was elected 1st Lieutenant, James Tierney of Fethard was elected Company Adjutant and Tommy Lee of Fethard was elected Quartermaster. Company There was no activity of note at that time. After the company was formed weekly parades were held, generally at Downey's Barn, and training in foot drill was engaged in.
