A JUDGE’S CURSE.
REMARKABLE MALEDICTION ON SINN FEINERS. "MALICE FROM A BOTTOMLESS HELL.” LONDON, March 14. Mr. Justice Wilson delivered a remarkable judgment at the Armagh Assizes relating to compensation arising out of the murder of John Cosgrove by Sinn Feiners last June. Mr. Justice Wilson said he had never heard of a more hellish, devilish crime. The Sinn Feiners had murdered O’Hanlon as a supposed spy, and then because Cosgrove, who was O’Hanlon’s cousin, had lifted and washed the body, the Sinn Feiners forced him to bid adieu to his wife and family, and shot him in cold blood outside his houoe. Even the Jews and Romans had not insulted the divine women who washed Christ’s body. The murder of Cosgrove was carried out in a spirit of malice that sprang from a bottomless hell, and called to Heaven for revenge. topless the people’s spiritual leaders denounced such crimes their palaces and temples would become the abode of foxes and owls. If he had the power he would make the perpretators and their children to the fourth generation serfs to Cosgrove’s widow and her descendants. In conclusion he increased the compensation from £1530 to £1750.
