EXECUTION.-Brosnehan, M'A...
EXECUTION.--BWos-7l 3-n eM'A7Sliji, and Lillis, for burning Church-town Barracks, were executed on Thursday. at GaUlows-green, Cork. On their arrival at the gallows they 'clt down, each attended by a clergyman, and after reading their prayer- books for a short time, the Rev. MIr. O'Connor called on the Sub- Sheriff(Henry Bennett, Esq.), and said tbat one of the unfortu. nate men had a few words to say to him. The Sheriff came tbr- ward, and M'Auliffe said-" I am guilty, Sir, of the crime for which I am about to suffer. I was at the attack, but having been wounded early in the afr'ay, I returned home, and it was afterwards the barrack was bumed, and the policemen killed ; but I acknow- ledge my guilt, the same as if I was there the whole time. I am sorry for it nowv, and the only reparation I can make in this world is to acknowledge it freelv, which I now do with all mv heart, and would wish that I could persuade others to do the samte, and take warning by our unhappy fate; I also forgive all the world, and beg, the prayers of aU persons present." Brosnehan, wrho was next to him, and heard this declaration, then said, " I acknowledge free- ly my guilt; I was there, and hope God will forgive me." The next unfortunate man, Lillis, in consequence of the strong alibi made out for him, said in general terms that " as the other two made de- clarations, there was no occasion for him to do the same." The- were three strong men, and in the awful trial of nature sustained themselves with great nerve. It is a remarkable feature in this case, that Brosnehan and SI'Auliffe, three weeks before their execution, were working in obscurity as labourers in London.
