HAMILTON, Sarah, 64, stated she had been sorely abused and maltreated by
her husband, who was a school master, and a pensioner, who had sold
everything in the house, and all her wearable’s, after a warm
discussion, she was admitted into the house, by way of loan to herself,
as she was entitled, in her own right, to £10 a year out of houses in
Wexford. Her husband had been bound to keep the peace towards her by the
Magistrates, but he had since beaten her, and she had not a bit to eat,
but she did not wish to come on the bails, as that would be no good to
her.

Taghmon, and was admitted into an out house belonging to Dr. O’CONNOR,

other necessaries, amounting to over 3/., and had send a coffin from the
Workhouse. The woman who attended him got no remuneration.
