A hall belonging to the Ancient Order of Hibernians, near Loughall in County Armagh, has been twice destroyed in eight months. First there was a fire in February, and the rebuilding of the hall was just being completed when between 200 and 300 men on Sunday night, marching in military formation and carrying rifles, laid 20 charges of gelignite. These exploded, bringing down the concrete walls and wrecking the hall. The Order has lodged a claim against the ratepayers of the area for compensation. It made a similar claim in connection with the February outrage.
