A Sinn Fein tribunal in County Clare sentenced three men to a fortnight’s detention on Mutton Island, for' refusing the tribunal’s order to rebuild a. farm wall which they had demolished. Constabulary learned of the incident and sent a boat to the rescue of the mar-
op net! trio, who, however, stoned their rescuers and declined to be released, declaring' themselves citizens of ttie Irish Republic and therefore the constabulary had no authority to intervene. ’ Thq constabulary then withdrew. The prisoners had ample provisions.
