May 25, 1861 Cavan Observer

A light-fingered gentleman who gave his name as Patrick Tracy, was brought up, charged on informations with having stolen a half-sovereign and 17s. 6d. in silver, from the person of Bernard Hill. Mr. Tracy, according to his own statement, was a model of innocence, requested the Court to pay particular attention to his case, had cross-examined Hill with the ability of an Old Bailey lawyer; but Hill, though rather simple-looking, succeeded in convincing the Court that, whether accidentally or otherwise, Mr. Tracy had abstracted the cash from his pocket. The Court accordingly sent Mr. Tracy for trial to the Quarter Sessions, despite the solemn protest of that gentleman that it was a great shame to do so.

 

July 6, 1861 Cavan Observer 

Margaret Carmichael and Mary Tracy appeared to answer the complaint of Susan Masterson for having assaulted her, and robbed her of 2s. The Chairman said he could scarcely believe the evidence of his senses; he had seen Susan so often in the character of defendant that he never deemed it possible that she could appear in any other role. This remark elicited only a grim smile from Black-eyed Susan, and a declaration that she had "right good cause to complain.".....She was in the nursery of the Workhouse when Mesdames Carmichael and Tracy laid violent hands upon her, knocked her down, displaced her head-dress, searched her hair, and finally stole her purse, containing six shillings of the current coin....The plunderers ran out to the yard with their booty, leaving her extended on the nursery floor They subsequently gave her back the purse and four shillings, retaining the other two....The two shillings were not found on the persons of the accused, and one of them stoutly asserted that they only found four shillings and threepence--halfpenny in Susan's purse, every penny of which they returned....The Court only dealt with the assault, for which they sentenced Mesdames Carmichael and Tracy to two months' imprisonment each. Susan look as if she would have preferred the restitution of the "tiu" to the incarceration of her assailants...
