TITLE: |
Letter from Reverend John M Ashe, County Mayo, outlining difficulties in recovering outstanding tithe arrears and seeking redress |
SCOPE & CONTENT: |
Letter from Reverend John M Ashe, Church of Ireland rector of Kilmolara, Neal Glebe [Nealepark], Ballinrobe, County Mayo, to William H Gregory, Under Secretary of Ireland, Dublin Castle, outlining the difficulties in recovering outstanding tithe arrears and seeking clarification on a point of law. Complains of the trouble of serving summons on those behind in payment and comments upon the need for extra time to hear cases involving tithe complaints. Draws attention to a recent sitting of petty sessions for the purpose of settling tithe cases which was declared illegal by James Cuff, magistrate of County Mayo; he recites Cuff’s opposition to the imposition of tithe on any stock holder with less that 10 sheep or lambs, an assertion that brought division amongst the sitting magistrates. For the purposes of expediency, he recommends that magistrates be given a designated period each month to hear cases relating to tithe matters, and that they should sit at a location in the centre of the barony. |

Letter from the Attorney General concerning a case of impropriety amongst the yeomanry of Shercock, County Cavan |
SCOPE & CONTENT: |
Letter from the Attorney General [William Conyngham Plunket], Dublin Castle, to William H Gregory, Under Secretary of Ireland, Dublin Castle, indicating that he and the Solicitor General [Henry Joy] have given their consideration to the ‘Shercock affair’ [County Cavan].
