On Friday, his Lordship resumed the hearing of Civil Bills. The cessation of business in the Court had an agreeable termination in one case entered for hearing, which had been before the court for some months, Heaphy v Bradley. Plaintiff and defendant mutually consented to forgive and forget, and like sensible men, shook hands over their disputes. Had it been done a few days sooner, each litigant would have saved some money; it was a good example and one that others were not allowed to imitate. The action arose for the default of opening a boundary drain – two processes £5 each have been issued. Messrs. Thomas Jordan, Surveyor, Donoghboy, for Mr. Heaphy and Mr. P Considine CE, Kilrush, for Mr. Bradley, had each grand maps of the farm to submit to his lordship, but the engineers did a wiser thing in making best friends of the two respectable neighbours.

Clare Advertiser and Gazette. April 22 1882. The Sub-Commission in Kilrush.

On Tuesday, Mr. Reeves, QC, Mr. O’Keeffe, and Mr. McCaneland as Sub-Commissioners held their sitting in the Kilrush Court House. Mr. Alfred McHugh, Registrar. Counsellor Fitzgerald was in attendance, as were Messrs. J Callinan, M McNamara, and John Frost, Solicitors, Ennis; Messrs. D R Hillard and T Kelly, Solicitors, Kilrush, were likewise present. There were several magistrates in the court on Tuesday – Counsellor Brew, Counsellor O’Gorman; Messrs. F B Keane, Ennis, T Greene, Ennis, and T Pilkington, Ennis.

The first case on for hearing was that of Mr. Samuel Burke, PLG, who applied for redress from being rack-rented in his holding at Killnagalliagh. Mr. Burke stated that the holding had been in his family for generations past, his grandfather, holding a lease for ever; but being of a free and easy disposition he allowed the place by some mismanagement to slip through his hands. He had a lease renewable for ever, but unluckily the receipts of the renewal payment got mislaid and as they were not forthcoming it was assumed by the heirs or heiresses, to the property, that the renewal fines were not paid – and hence in consequence, in the non-production of the documentary testimony he (the applicant) became a yearly tenant in bad times probably about the year 1848. Mr. Burke then said the land was of very unproductive quality. He also testified that the thumb-screw practice of getting a notice to quit whenever there was a rise in rent. It was originally in 1842, let at 5s 6d an acre, then at 7s 6d, subsequently 9s 6d.  He tried various methods of treating the land by meadowing, tillage and grazing, but without the radical source of thorough draining manure, it was only thrown away on it. The farm was at present derelict for he could not get a man for love or money to mind it. No herd, no produce, no potatoes – and worse than all, no aid to drain the farm from Captain Morgan or co-heiresses.

To prove the value of the land, Mr. Burke had several witnesses in court, who had all been very closely interrogated by Mr. Hilliard, solicitor for the applicant. Mr. McNamara, solicitor was retained for the landlord. The rent was £20; valuation £17 10s. The holding was about 20 Irish acres.

Mr. Heaphy, agriculturalist was examined at considerable length. He deposed to the quality of the land in several portions of it – that west of the road, containing about nine acres had a surface of about 6 to 8 inches, which if drained would be good land, wet slobby earth, subsoil yellow retentive clay worth about 11s per acre, in all £4 19s. About 7 acres west of the holding the surface was about 6 to 7 inches, brown wet earth – subsoil yellow clay tinder (Greedy land), worth about 14s an acre.

The valuation set down by Mr. Heaphy as he went along, seemed to annoy Mr. Burke a good deal as being far in excess of the applicants estimate. About four acres in the eastern direction the surface was bout 4 to 5 inches with yellow subsoil retentive clay, worth 16s an acre - £3 4s, making £13 1s or an average of 13s an acre. Three acres of carcass or waste worth £1, in all £14 1s.

Mr. F Brew, Newtown, gave testimony as to the character of the land and of the necessity of it being drained.  He had compared his valuation to that of Mr. Heaphy’s return, and his impression was that the farm was value for £14 6s.

Mr. P Considine CK, was examined as to the measurements of the holding, and also to the character of the land. In reply to the chairman’s enquiry, said he had been several years in Her Majesty’s Survey Department, not on the Board of Works.  His testimony was confirmatory of the opinion given by Mr. Heaphy, who had stated for many years his experience was devoted to the culture of land, and of making good land of bad land for noblemen and gentleman in Limerick and other places. He was not very closely cross-examined.

To view the lands at Parknemunne and Killnagalliagh, each being farms owned by Mr. Burke, one adjoining his residence at Thomastown, the other in the West was the finishing duties of the commissioners on Tuesday evening, as also to visit the farm of Michael Divine, tenant.

Mr. Heaphy was sworn as to the value of Mr. Divine’s farm at Rahaniskey. The holding consists of 20 Irish acres, nine of which had a surface of brown clay earth worth 15s an acre, £6 15s. Eleven acres house division, the surface was 6 to 7 inches, with a subsoil of yellow clay, value £1 2s 6d an acre, £12 17s 6d – in all £19 2s 6d, or averaging £19 6s 1/2d an acre.

[Article continues] ……Sergeant Joseph Heaphy deposed that he saw the deceased on yesterday morning at about quarter after ten o’clock; witness spoke to him and he said “they are b----; they go to the chapel at seven o’clock in the morning, and then when they come back, they blackbean me.
