Rioting Defenders Clash with Baileyborough Rebels in 1793 Ireland
In Baileyborough district of Cavan and surrounding counties, Protestant and Presbyterian landowners formed a force to suppress armed Defenders, said to be Catholic peasantry. A night ambush led to multiple deaths and injuries, with 18 killed in a recent battle and many prisoners taken. The incident sparked wide distress as agriculture faltered and towns emptied, while officials press for unity and stronger action against insurrection. The report, dated January 21, 1793, notes broader political tensions and critiques a nearby Devizes congregation for its constitutional stance.
