January
25, 1868.
To The Editor Of The Carlow Sentinel.
SIR, - Seeing a report in your last week’s issue of the Sentinel of an
attempted burglary on the premises of a Mr Bickerby, in this town, I
beg to say that there is no such person in this town, nor has there
been an attempt of the kind made here for the last sixteen years or
better, when such was attempted; but the parties concerned were
arrested in the act and made amenable to the law. I will thank you to
insert this statement, as the unfounded report of such an occurrence
would tend to injure the interests of our town.-
I am, sir, your very obedient,
John b. Warren, Town Clerk.
Bagenalstown, 22nd, 1868.
[We regret having unintentionally given
publication to the very gross fabrication referred to, which was
contained in a paragraph copied from the Freeman’s journal of
Wednesday, The 15th Instant, Purporting To Be Furnished To That
Journal by a correspondent.- ED. C.S.]
