CLONMEL ADVERTISER 11-7-1818

Clonmel July 4th 1818  Election.
Yesterday in consequence of some words in the Eliogarty
booth , between Mr. DANIEL FALKNER, and Mr. JOHN HUNT, of
Thurles, they met in a short time at Thakincor, in the
County of Waterford, where at the first fire Mr. Hunt
received a ball in the left leg, which fractured one of the
bones thereof; but we are happy to hear his life is not
considered in danger. Mr. HUNT'S ball, we understand,
passed through one of the whiskers of Mr. Falkner. Mr. Hunt
was seconded by NICHOLAS MEAGHER, esq., of Thurles, as was
Mr. FALKNER by Captain ROBINS.
