The local bailiff, while walking along A'ictoria Avenue on Saturday afternoon, was invited to come with a stranger to the back of the Y.AI.C.A. premises, where it was suggested that a confidential conversation should take place. No sooner had Air Curran turned the corner at the rear of the building when he received blows on the face, blackening one eye and cutting an ear. He was also kicked on the knee, and he dislocated one shoulder through falling over.
His assailant, then left Afr Curran, who struggled to a neighbouring doctor as best he could. He was subsequently ordered to hospital.
