As you pass through Dublin, this is where a court-martial scandal played out in 1798. A yeoman was tried for murder before a court-martial here. The murder was clearly proved, yet the prisoner was acquitted. When the minutes of the trial were laid before the Lord Lieutenant, the Marquis Cornwallis, he ordered the court to be dissolved and to try no more, with marked indignation. The court had Lord Enniskillen as its president. The writer notes that by May 1799 prisoners were passing through so frequently that keeping account proved an endless task. They arrived every other day, and one batch recently had no less than 40, among them a gentleman named Lysaght from County Clare.

Florence Newton's witchcraft case at Youghal
Youghal · town · Cork
The review of Seymour's 'Irish Witchcraft and Demonology' recalls the classic Anglo-Irish witchcraft case of Florence Newton of Youghal, among the collected cases of demoniac obsession and witchery in Ireland.
Read the passage
"Irish Witchcraft and Demonology" by Rev. St. John D. Seymour, B.D. (Dublin, Hodges, Figgis & Co.), whose "Diocese of Emly" was recently noticed in this page, is a collection in good, smooth-reading English, of practically all the cases of demoniac obsession and of witchery reported from Anglo-Ireland. Celtic Ireland, though it did not lack superstitions of its own, never appears to have produced — certainly it never persecuted — witches. All the classic Anglo-Irish cases are here requoted, from ancient Dame Alice Kyteler's and Florence Newton's of Youghal to Mary Butter's of Carnmoney in the nineteenth century. The chief Irish cases of ghostly apparition are added. In those the author ought have included the Curraghmore Ghost story — more famous than any he has given. It is not to the stories that the student of folklore will chiefly turn, but to the author's illuminating introduction wherein he will find some five and twenty thoughtful pages devoted to a consideration of the witch in Ireland.
Judged by the volume of its literature Folk Lore bids fair to become the most popular branch of archaeolog}^ or shall we say — of ethnology. This is due, not entirely to the attractiveness of folklore— though the latter is palpable enough—but is to be attributed to increasing recognition of the subject's importance. In "Ulster Folk Lore" (Elliot Stock, London), Elizabeth Andrews furnishes an interesting contribution to the Irish section of the subject. Evidently the author, like her predecessors, has found that collecting of tales is easier work than analysis, and deduction of scientific conclusions. Her work, in other words, is a collection of

Ogham and cup-and-circle stones removed from Mothel
Mothel · townland · Waterford · 1913–1914
The Seemochuda ogham stone and a cup-and-circle inscribed stone originally from Mothel were reported to have recently been removed to University College, Cork, amid controversy over disturbance of national monuments.
Read the passage
It is not often in Ireland that a matter of purely archaeological concern becomes the subject of a somewhat heated newspaper controversy. Such a thing has recently happened in Cork, where demolition of a rath cave for the purpose of deciphering the oghams on its stone lintels and removal of the latter to a museum had aroused a storm of ink and invective. In as far as it betokens an interest in our national monuments the outburst is a healthy sign, but so far as it echoes the poor personal note (and the writer, an outsider, thought he could distinctly detect the latter) it is a trick of the same old game that Ireland has reason to rue so bitterly. To the writer, who loves every stone in our cairns and cahers and every grass blade that springs from our raths, it certainly seems that Professors Macallister and MacNeill have more than vindicated their position — if indeed the latter required vindication at all. Here and in this connection it may be well to put on record that the Seemochuda ogham stone and the cup-and-circle inscribed stone from Mothel have recently been removed to University College, Cork.

However it may be well to supply addenda et conigenda as follows : At p. 123, Austace Devous (?) is Austace Devereux ; May Touers (?) is May Power's ; Thomas Rartoe is Thomas Rafter, S.J. ; John Coppeyinge is John Coppinger, P.J. At p. 124 Peter Drowham is Peter Druhan. At p. 125, omit: "Raughter may have been, like Nicholas Lincolm, an Augustinian." Raughter was Father Thos. Rafter, S.J.

As the companion tells it
As you pass through Dublin, this city holds the burial place of Matthew Roche. He was Vicar-Apostolic of Leighlin from 1622 to 1642, and is recorded as having been maintained at Ross. He is said to have been hanged in December 1647 by the Confederates. He was buried in St. John's Church, Dublin, on January 20th, 1648. The record that tells his story comes from a list of priests and friars dating to 1610. That list has been printed several times, with varying accuracy. A fairly good transcript appeared in Battersby's Catholic Directory for 1841. Reverend Doctor Carrigan and Philip Hore have published most of it. Alongside Roche's entry, the list names other priests connected to Ross, including Father James Fitz Nicholas, also called Walshe, and Richard Fitz Henry. The corrections to the list matter because they show how names were misread over time. Thomas Rartoe is Thomas Rafter, a Jesuit. Peter Drowham is Peter Druhan. James Sale is James Sail, also a Jesuit. Sir John Deece is Reverend John Pierce. Sir William is Reverend William Hampton. The list places Roche among the clergy maintained at Ross before his execution and burial here in Dublin.

Humbert's French landing at Killala in fiction and history

Just as our last pages are going through the press come two or three additional volumes seeking a word of welcome and this with much pleasure is herewith extended to them. "The Race of Castlebar" (London, John Murray), is an historical tale of hapless Ninety-Eight by the Hon. Emily Lawless and Shan Bullock. It is not, of course, in its capacity as a work of fiction that the book is noticed here, but in its character of historical narrative. The authors, finding Irish history at this point dramatic enough for novel purposes, have given us a chapter of cotemporary events in which, to add a more living interest, a number of fictitious figures are made to move and act their parts. There is not much plot, but interest is excited and sustained. The scene of the story is — Killala and the west, and the theme — the landing of the

Relic of the old Waterford watchman's rattle
Waterford · city · Waterford
A curious relic of old Waterford civic life, a watchman's night rattle used to raise alarm, was recently acquired and described, illustrating pre-police street watch practices in the city.
Read the passage
A Waterford Watchman's Rattle. — There has recently come into my possession a curious relic of old Waterford civic life in shape of the watchman's rattle illustrated as frontispiece to the present issue. The instrument resembles the "clapper" or rattle in use in some churches and religious houses on Good Friday, and illustrates in a practical way the expression — "to spring a rattle." In the centre is a thin tongue of hard elastic wood which is sprung by wooden cogs wound by the handle. The body or frame of the rattle is ten inches long by about three and a half inches in width, and the handle projects six inches approximately. On the upper edge is a small circular mortise hole now vacant ; this probably contained a wooden peg with a ring by which the antique machine could be suspended from the watchman's neck. The sound is as loud as a modern police whistle but the tone is more unpleasant— a grating claque, very disagreeable to sensitive ears and nerves. Probably there is no one now living who remembers the watchman's rattle in actual use— though there are some who remember the watch and their supplanting by the "peelers." The rattle bears impressed the name of its maker, "I. Sutton, Bristol." P.

The chief Irish cases of ghostly apparition are added. In those the author ought have included the Curraghmore Ghost story — more famous than any he has given. It is not to the stories that the student of folklore will chiefly turn, but to the author's illuminating introduction wherein he will find some five and twenty thoughtful pages devoted to a consideration of the witch in Ireland.
Judged by the volume of its literature Folk Lore bids fair to become the most popular branch of archaeolog}^ or shall we say — of ethnology. This is due, not entirely to the attractiveness of folklore— though the latter is palpable enough—but is to be attributed to increasing recognition of the subject's importance. In "Ulster Folk Lore" (Elliot Stock, London), Elizabeth Andrews furnishes an interesting contribution to the Irish section of the subject. Evidently the author, like her predecessors, has found that collecting of tales is easier work than analysis, and deduction of scientific conclusions. Her work, in other words, is a collection of

Death of naturalist-antiquarian R. J. Ussher of Cappagh
Cappagh · townland · Waterford · 1913–1914
The obituary notes the death of R. J. Ussher of Cappagh, a founding and highly valued member of the Society, praised for his exacting scientific and archaeological work.
Read the passage
Mr. R. J. Ussher.— In the death of Mr. R. J. Ussher, of Cappagh, our Society has lost one of its original and most valued members, whose time, talents, pen, and experience were in every emergency at its service. One of the striking qualities of Mr. Ussher's scientific work was its absolute conscientiousness ; there was no taking anything for granted ; everything had to be proved — everything had to be set down in most precise terms ; for surmise or assumption there was no toleration. It was indeed an education in method to observe his work and its way — so cautious, so critical, so clear. Certainly here was a man whom we could ill afford to lose. It is not our Society alone but all scientific Ireland, and for that matter the world itself of science, which has lost in Mr. Ussher's death. Mr. Ussher's interests were, of course, primarily and principally in ornithology, but in the field of archaeology too, he was an earnest and diligent worker, as the valuable papers from his pen in this Journal and in many similar publications bear ample evidence.
After an interval of over forty years since appearance of the second volume of the work we bid welcome to Vol. III. of Dr. Joyce's "Origin and History of Irish Names of Places" (London, Longmans, Green & Co.) With the science of Irish toponomy which the venerable author may be said to have created his name will be ever associated. In the present volume the grand old man of Irish place-name lore departs somewhat from the methods followed in the other volumes of the series. Here he harks back somewhat to the method of his smaller work, "Irish Local Names
