FATE OF THE BOYCOTTED.
Press Association.—Copyright. London, March 6.
Eight residents of Ballingbragh were charged at Leitrim Assizes with rioting. The evidence showed that some boycotted men went twenty miles for bread, but were waylaid and robbed of . their provisions by seven hundred.
Justice Kennedy declared that it was hard to believe that they were living in a Christian country. If jurors sympathised with the prisoners they were unfit to fill the most menial office.
The jury disagreed, and the case stands adjourned to next assizes.
