"Irish-American" Newspaper, New York City, March 21, 1857 - News From Ireland

A revenue policeman, at Portumna, accidentally shot a poor woman in that town lately, having gone into her house with his loaded gun. A report has been made against the party of revenue police to which the man belonged, who are charged with straggling along the road and firing shots at random. Sergeant Dawson was suspended for allowing the men to fire along the road, and a sergeant of the Killaloe party was sent to Portumna to take charge until such time as the reports are proceeded on. Privates Brogan, Whelan, Ward and Nolan were also suspended for loading their arms and firing.

Thanks for any help,
