Highwayman on Phoenix Park Robbery in Dublin
A report from Freeman's Journal notes that on a Friday afternoon in Ireland a gentlemanly thief on foot in white clothes and a gold-laced hat stopped a lady and her servant in Phoenix Park near the Black Horse. He demanded money, stole 26 guineas, then took a diamond hoop ring and fled. Newry dispatches add a Carrickmacross affray last Monday resulting in a man and woman killed, with the severed head of the woman reported.
