Convict Notes
At the Assizes of Ennis, on Thursday, Patrick Thynne, the Captain of the Ribbonmen, who, with nine others, were taken the taken the Gentlemen of Corrofin, at night, (as mentioned in a former Paper,) was put upon his trial about twelve o’clock. His companions were permitted to give evidence for the Crown, and in a short time he was convicted of administering illegal oaths, and received sentence of transportation for life. The approvers were ordered by the Court to be then discharged from the dock, and in putting them out some confusion occurred in calling over the names, which the convict taking advantage of, he endeavoured to escape, by crawling over the side bar, but having been observed a Gentleman, he was instantly secured, and then ordered to be taken from the dock, to the nearest sea port, Cork, and from thence to be conveyed to Botany Bay. At four o'clock he was brought into Limerick by a party of the Police and on Friday morning was forwarded to his destination. This prompt punishment, it is hoped, will be a salutary warning.
