Letter from Elizabeth Yorke, Lady Hardwicke to Lady Lucas. All the trials [of the instigators of the 1803 rebellion] have been sent. Russell’s is not published except in the Hibernian Magazine, which has compiled it from different newspapers.

23 Dec 1803

From: 1803 To: 1803

Hopes the map of Dublin arrived safely. [Michael] Dwyer has been taken; it is as well because he kept up a sort of dragoons for rebels or outlaws. The writer wonders where he was supplied with money. There is another robber in another part of the mountains named [James] Corcoran; he will probably soon be in the same situation.
