TITLE: |
File of material relating to the pursuit of Farrel Dolan of the 97th regiment of foot, implicated in the murder of a mail carrier near Newry, County Armagh |
SCOPE & CONTENT: |
File of material relating to the pursuit of Farrel Dolan [alias Doran], a private in the 97th regiment of foot, who is charged as an accessory to the murder of a mail carrier [or postillon] named Thomas Doyle, near the town of Newry in County Armagh, in November 1824. Includes copy letter from Lieutenant Colonel John Austin, depot commander, 97th regiment of foot, Chatham, England, to Colonel Sir Archibald Christie, [commandant, Chatham], reporting that Dolan went with the 97th regiment to Ceylon [Sri Lanka] in the month of April last. Having perused the description given of the suspect, he entertains ‘no doubt’ that this ‘is the man sought after’ by the authorities in Ireland, 3 August 1825. Also includes letter from John Armstrong, chief constable of police, Drogheda, County Louth, to Henry Goulburn, Chief Secretary, Dublin Castle, discussing efforts to track down Dolan who is thought to be based in the town of Winchester, England, with the 97th regiment. If the suspect still remains in that place, he advises a communication should be made with Christie to have him arrested and placed in jail. In due course, an officer may be dispatched from Ireland to verify his identity and escort him back to Ireland to face prosecution, 7 August 1825. |

TITLE: |
Letter from the magistrates of County Antrim seeking an enquiry into the part taken by Reverend Philip Johnson during an illegal orange march in Lisburn on the 12th of July |
SCOPE & CONTENT: |
Letter from Robert Williamson, John McCain and Thomas Fulton, magistrates, Lisburn, County Antrim, to Henry Goulburn, Chief Secretary, Dublin Castle, reflecting on their united efforts to suppress an illegal assembly of orangemen in the town of Lisburn on the 12th of July. In view of the apparent sanction given by the Lord Lieutenant to the behaviour of Reverend Philip Johnson [a magistrate of County Antrim who encouraged the orange parade], they wish to learn if they acted correctly or not. They draw attention to the contradiction between certain representatives of government and the law advisors of the crown, and seek a formal investigation. On the occasion in question, another magistrate, William Hawkshaw, they point out, was warned his house would be knocked if he refused to return ‘their Standard, which had been seized by him’. Also draft reply from the CSO to the magistrates of Lisburn, indicating the government applauds their defence of the law but is likewise prepared to accept the explanation given by Johnson as to his actions on the occasion in question.

Letter from Richard Willcocks, inspector general of police, [Munster], concerning a call for the appointment of Henry Woodburn, as resident chief constable in the barony of Connello Upper in County Limerick |
SCOPE & CONTENT: |
Letter from Major Richard Willcocks, inspector general of police [Munster], Cork, County Cork, to Henry Goulburn, Chief Secretary, Dublin Castle, expressing his confidence in the ability of Henry Woodburn, the chief constable of police for the barony of Connello Upper in County Limerick. For a district of that order, he submits, a single chief constable is sufficient to govern a party of 16 policemen. Returns memorial from the magistrates of the eastern half barony of Connello Upper, to Richard Wellesley, 1st Marquis Wellesley, Lord Lieutenant, Dublin Castle, seeking permission to have Woodburn appointed as their resident and permanent chief constable. They point out that their half barony has for some time been under the ‘care’ of Woodburn but he was ‘withdrawn to put down temporary disturbances which broke out in Shanagolden’; signed by Thomas O’Dell, Limerick, and 4 other magistrates.

Letter from Richard Willcocks, inspector general of police, [Munster], concerning a complaint over the use of police at New Inn [Newinn], County Tipperary, in labour connected with tithe valuation |
SCOPE & CONTENT: |
Letter from Major Richard Willcocks, inspector general of police [Munster], Cork, County Cork, to Henry Goulburn, Chief Secretary, Dublin Castle, concerning a complaint over the use of police at New Inn [Newinn], near Cashel, County Tipperary, in labour connected with tithe valuation. The anonymous complain, he believes, originated with a magistrate of the Roman Catholic persuasion who is resident in that part of the kingdom. Returns letter from Reverend [Nicholas] Herbert, Church of Ireland clergyman and magistrate of New Inn, barony of Middlethird, stating the police did not go out in company with the tithe assessors. However, at the time he gave prior instructions to the constabulary to maintain a presence on the roads ‘as a preventative to disturbance’. He points out in the past his parish has been encroached upon by ‘Armed Parties’ who have strongly opposed the collectors, but on this occasion the work of the tithe viewers was completed without interruption. Also returns letter signed ‘a freeholder of Co[unty] Tipp[erary]’ to Goulburn, complaining that Herbert employed the police to assist the tithe proctors in their work at New Inn. Warns that such use of force is likely to be productive of ill consequences in the neighbourhood and proposes an enquiry. [See also descriptions CSO/RP/SC/1825/548 and CSO/RP/SC/1825/605]. |

SCOPE & CONTENT: |
Letter from Lieutenant Hugh Boyd Wray, chief constable of police, Borris in Ossory, Queen’s County [County Laois; Leix], to Henry Goulburn, Chief Secretary, Dublin Castle, seeking the guidance of government on how to respond to the threat of a violent party confrontation in the town of Mountmellick on fair day, the 26th of August. He indicates he will have a considerable police force at his disposal on the morning in question but as there is no magistrate in the immediate vicinity, he requests the determination of government in the circumstances, 23 August 1825. Encloses letter from John Cope Chetwood, Woodbrook, magistrate of Queen’s County, warning of the potential for ‘riotous proceedings’ at Mountmellick fair and advising that a strong party of police should be deployed in that place to prevent public hurt, 21 August 1825. Also copy letter from Goulburn to Wray, advising him at once to seek the aid of a local magistrate. In the event of none being available, he instructs him to proceed to the town on the 26th and to make every effort to preserve the peace. Under the circumstances, the men of the constabulary must be attentive to discipline and are to avoid the use of force ‘unless absolutely necessary’, 24 August 1825. |
