Proclamation Reward for Firesetters in Timahoe Ireland
The Dublin Gazette reports a proclamation by the Lord Lieutenant and Council of Ireland offering forty pounds for the first rewarded conviction and twenty pounds for each additional offender in the arson of the Mickle property and Quaker meeting house at Timahoe County Kildare. The document urges swift discovery, apprehension, and conviction within four months with royal pardon for accomplices if they inform. Rewards are enhanced for further discoveries within the period. Sir John Rogerson and other officials seal the commanding text.
