Incident in 1923 Carlow.
Dail Eireann Debate, 11th
Dec. 1923. Vol. 5 # 21.
EAMON O DUBHGHAILL: asked
the Minister for Defence, General Mulcahy, whether he has
received a report from the Carlow Military Authorities
concerning the case of John Donnelly, of Castle Hill, Carlow,
who was brought out at night and threatened to be shot by
National Troops and Officers of the Irish Free State army in
uniform for a remark alleged to have been made by him to
another, and which both denied; whether, seeing that this
incident has ruined the chance of this man earning a livelihood
in Carlow, in which he has been resident for over 16 years, that
he has now been idle for over 15 months, the case will be
re-considered with a view to granting adequate compensation for
his losses.
General MULCAHY replied : I
have received a report of the incident referred to. John
Donnelly was taken out at night-time and cautioned in connection
with statements alleged to have been made by him regarding the
death of General Michael Collins. I am not aware that the
incident has ruined his chance of earning a livelihood in
Carlow. He left his employment of his own free will. The case is
not one in which compensation can be awarded.

If I might intervene for a moment, in order to explain, a sum of
£100,000 was voted by the Dáil to relieve distress mainly on the
Western and Southern seaboards. It is possible that the Deputy may
have concluded that
Carlow should
have got some of that, but that particular sum was earmarked for
places where distress was likely to occasion famine. It was not for
the relief of distress generally

To ask the Postmaster-General whether his attention has been called
to the suspension of Padraig O Catháin, of
Carlow Town Post Office; if so,
whether he will state what was his offence and by whom was the
suspension carried out, and whether it is a fact that the officer
responsible acts in turn as a postal official and as a military
officer; and whether the fact that the suspended employee acted as
Director of Elections on behalf of the Labour Candidate for the
constituency of
Carlow and
Kilkenny was in any way responsible for his suspension; also,
whether many similar suspensions have taken place, and, if so, how
many, and on what charges, and whether they will be given an
opportunity to answer the charges if any, which have led to their
suspension.

May I ask as a supplementary question whether the gentleman who
suspended Mr. O'Kane has, in the first instance, asked him to put
down in writing whether he had any association with the Irregulars,
and Mr. O'Kane having given an answer and that not having been
deemed satisfactory by the gentleman who carried out his suspension
whether he put a further question, whether he had any connection
with the Irregulars or not, and Mr. O'Kane having replied “No,” not
having got him on that point, he then paid attention to some work
which Mr. O'Kane was performing at the time, making up accounts, and
when a few shillings was found short, not having deemed that
sufficient to make a case out of, he then enquired into another case
of its kind which had occurred previously. If I be in order I wish
to say that I should like to put down a special question in
connection with that, since I have a written signed statement by Mr.
O'Kane to that effect. I think the question might be dealt with more
satisfactorily by a statement than by merely asking a question.

worked in Glasgow, the Unemployment Book which he held belonged to
Great Britain, and his account with the Unemployment Fund was in
London. Immediate steps were taken to transfer the account to
Dublin. Some delay necessarily occurred in the transfer; but as soon
as it was received in Ireland payment of benefit to the maximum
amount was authorised, and the applicant will get his first payment,
