    Default Can anyone read this please

    Hi there can anyone please read this I can see it says Redhill Co Cavan but What is underneath? I am not sure if it is part of the address. Any suggestions most welcome. Sorry I can't get this picture to load, must be doing something wrong! I thought it was too good to be true. Anyway it reads Redhill, Co Cavan then underneath in brackets it is ride or side then it looks like repost and it ends in side I think though I am not sure

    No picture has come through. If it is a census entry, can you give us the reference?

    I expect Jans PM explains it, but for general information, the forum doesn't allow uploads apart from very tiny ones (e.g avatars).
    The best bet is to stick the image onto an online site such as photobucket or similar and then link to that from your post. There is a very good how-to use photobucket on the forum somewhere...

    Looks like "side report inside" to me...

    Without date of document and/or context the challenge is increased. What I see is Latin (vide reportium; meaning 'see' or refer to (the) report .

    Default Context Always Helps

    Hi Pejay

    In my opinion, sleuthing involves imagination as much as anything else. It is hard to imagine what it says when we don't really have the context.

    Is it a medical or a military discharge; or both? Both the french and italian languages have contributed words ( riposte, riposta) which mean a swift response, return or answer.

    Using some imagination, it could be that at discharge there is an immediate need for transport to somewhere, as a duty of the releasing party to return the discharged person to safety or comfort.

    In such a context it may mean that "our response in terms of the necessary transport arrangements is here". In their code " ride ripost inside".

    regards
    Chris
