WATERFORD ASSiZ283-JULY 27. County Crown Trials and Riots at Ennisporthy
In Waterford a public court session opened with remarks on county tranquility. Indictments accuse Jackson Kirwan and Edmund Russell of unlawful oaths and riot linked to an 18 November seizure of an outstanding debt by bailiffs. Russell acquitted, Jackson fined ten pounds and jailed six months. Kirwan imprisoned six months. A separate case covers riot charges against John Mos and others for obstruction of a magistrate in Ennisporthy, resulting in acquittals and light sentences for the accused, with praise for local conduct following the events.
