Source:  Mr Michael Purcell

 

On 21st day of September 1826 Laurence Conneron of Bortle in the Parish of Kiltegan , County of Wicklow made the following statement to Rev. James McGhee, Justice of the Peace.

On Monday 18th day of September I was in Hacketstown, Carlow when I was violently and riotously attacked without any provocation I was beaten , cut, battered and abused by Andrew Shannon and Patrick Freeman both of Hacketstown, Carlow , Laurence Doyle of Bortle, Wicklow , Hugh King of Eagle Hill, Carlow, Patrick Reilly of Eagle Hill otherwise Crounaseagh, Carlow all of whom joined with nine others in assaulting and beating me and I really think that I would have been killed had it not been for the interference of the women of Hacketstown.
