Attack on Michael FANNING of Killough 30-8-1838
On Wednesday night the house of Michael Fanning, of Killough, near
Templemore, was attacked by an armed party, three of whom who broke in
through a window in the rear, where they lighted a wisp of straw. One of
them went to Fanning’s bedside with a pistol and swore he would blow his
brains out if he did not cover his head, while the others searched the
house, and took therefrom, £12.10. in bank notes and silver, and also took a
waistcoat, stockings, tin canister, and a bottle of spirits. Fanning, on the
party quitting, ran into town, which is three miles distance, and reported
it to Constable Foott, who lost no time in pursuit of the marauders, and
fortunately came up with three of the party, seven miles from Fanning’s
residence, on whose persons he found the waistcoat, stockings, canister, and
the bottle with some spirits in it, which have been identified by Fanning,
his wife, and servant woman. Limerick Chronicle. 30-8-1838
