Convict Notes
Kings County Quarter Sessions - Elizabeth Farrell was convicted of stealing a shift, a comb and a frock, the property of Michael Myers, at Cappincur, on the 21st October. It appeared in evidence that she was a vagrant, and having been accommodated with a lodging by prosecutor, she decamped with a considerable quantity of his property, while prosecutor and his wife were at the fair of Tullamore, on which occasion they entrusted prisoner with the care of the house. She heard the well merited sentence of transportation for seven years pronounced without seeming to regard it. Freeman's Journal 26 January 1830.
