On Sunday night, a house was maliciously burned on the lands of Coolderry, Co. Clare, the property of a poor widow, named Tracy. She had a few days previous, lodged informations against some sheep-stealers - and it is supposed that act was the cause of this outrage.

The people built this church of Our Lady of the Assumption in 1844. Fr. P. Treacy was the parish priest.

Nov. 5, 1844 Tipperary Vindicator
On Wednesday, as a man named John Ransford, was proceeding from Bird-hill towards Ballynahinch, he was met by a party of armed men who attacked him. He escaped and ran to the house of a relative Edmond Ransford who informed the police at the Muragh station, about a mile and a half distant. Sergeant Goore and a party of police pursued the ruffians who fled in the direction of O'Brien's bridge. He succeeded in arresting three men, named Martin Tracy, James Tracy and Hill. The cause assigned for the attack is a spirit of revenge, instigated by Ransford having taken some land from which the Tracy's had been evicted.

November 8, 1844 The Tyrone Constitution

Attempt to murder.---About eight o'clock, on the night of the 29th ult., a man named John Ransford, when returning to his residence at Ballinahinch, was waylaid and severely assaulted by an armed party, who inflicted some severe cuts in his head---he also received a gun shot wound in the thigh---the party having commenced their attack by firing at him. On being informed of the occurrence, Constable Gaul, of the next police station, and his men, immediately went in pursuit of the offenders, in the direction of O'Brien's bridge, and arrested, in the county of Clare, four men who are now in custody for examination, of whom Martin Tracy has been identified by Ransford as being one of the five who attacked him. The cause of this outrage is not known at present.---Nenagh Guardian.
