30th, His Lordship Mr.Justice Morrison presiding, for the purpose of finally disposing of the cases of eleven of the prisoners who had been convicted but not yet sentenced.

After the usual Court preliminaries had been concluded, and the prisoners placed in the dock, Hon.

Mr.Cameron moved that the sentence of the Court be passed upon the following prisoners:--Patrick Norton, Thos.

H.Maxwell, Patrick O'Neil, James Burke, Daniel Quinn, Peter Ledwith, John O'Connor, John Rogers, Owen Kennedy.

Barney Dunn and John Gallagher.
His Lordship then sentenced all of the above named to be hanged on the 5th of March.
Appeals were made to higher Courts in several of the cases, but all were disallowed, and it seemed for a time as if a wholesale execution of the prisoners on the gibbet would be the result.
