Fire Rampage Strikes Faha and Nearby Farms
An armed mob attacked houses in Faha near Kildare, burning the Sheehy farm and Madigan residence, destroying dairy utensils and furniture, two cattle, and money owed for rent. A man named Leahy fled, and another barn containing horse and calf was consumed. The raid extended to offices on the Mullet estate, with livestock and hay set ablaze. The attackers also damaged lands on Fort and Conve baronies. Local authorities report multiple arsons and property loss in a coordinated nighttime assault.
