Hello Listers, Am hoping a subscriber (or three) will find this extract from the Weekly Vindicator (Belfast) November 27, 1847 of a little interest. This short item also includes the names of the siblings of MICHAEL LINN (treasure!)
MURDER. – We are sorry to have to announce that the north has been disgraced by another murder, which occurred on Tuesday last, at Cavanakeeran, in the barony of Dungannon, and parish of Pomeroy. On that day, JOHN HAZLETON, a bailiff, proceeded to execute a quarter sessions decree against a family of the of LINN, when he was stabbed by MICHAEL LINN, with a bayonet, in the side, which caused his death in a few hours. A coroner’s inquest has been held upon the body, and a verdict of wilful murder returned against MICHAEL LINN. Five brothers were concerned in the murder. FELIX and JOHN have been taken into custody, but the murderer, with PATRICK and PETER, have escaped. Mr. COULSON, R.M., of Omagh, has offered a reward of £30 for the apprehension of the parties Regards and much luck with your research, Len Swindley, Melbourne, Australia Sent from Mail<https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=550986> for Windows 10
