  East Charlton Tribune Sept. 16, 1882 East Charlton County Court - Weds. Sept. 13th. Before A Jury Of Four and His Honor Judge Quinlan. O'Sullivan v Knapp, action to recover for slander and defamation of character, damages �100. Mr Barret appeared for plaintiff, and Dr Quick for defendant. The following gentlemen composed the jury :- Messrs. T. Stodart (foreman), W.A.T.C. Watson, R. Kendall and E.H. Miles. Some preliminary conversation occurred between his Honor and counsel with regard to a postponement of the case to the County Court at St Arnaud on Friday, but Dr Quick said that he had an engagement at Ballarat on that day, and on his Honor observing that ill-will was often created when these cases were allowed to stand over, Mr Barrett elected to proceed. Plaintiff's counsel briefly alluded to the ground of action, which was initiated in consequence of the defendant's having alluded to the plaintiff as a Fenian, and bruited about that the plaintiff had said, when referring to the assassination of Lord Frederick Cavendish and Mr Bourke in Dublin in May last, that "it was a pity that Mr Gladstone was not also murdered." He (Mr Barrett) need hardly remind the jury of the shock that these murders gave to all decent people, and the horrible nature of the assertion made by the defendant. He regarded the general acceptation of the word "Fenian" as a term of the greatest reproach, and he had no doubt the jury would appreciate what the term would be if applied to either of them. He (Mr Barrett) would now call evidence in support of the case. (The witnesses had been ordered out of court.) Thomas Bennett, farmer, West Charlton, remembered the 10th of May last. Was standing near the "Tribune" office, when defendant came up, and asked him (witness) if he had heard the news about the Dublin assassinations. He (defendant) asked, "What do you think of a man who said 'it was a pity that Mr Gladstone was not murdered too." Witness asked him who it was that said that. Defendant replied that it was P.O'Sullivan. J. Lamplough, butcher, Charlton, remembered Thursday, 11th May, and a conversation with the defendant, who said that Mrs Curnell had thrown him over through that d____d Fenian next door. Defendant also said that "he would like to have a round with him (plaintiff)." Charles Mather, barman, at the East Charlton hotel, remembered Thursday, 11th May. Saw defendant between eight and nine o'clock in the evening. Heard him say that there was a firebrand in the town that wanted turning out. Mr McMahon and Mr Quirk, who were present, expressed an opinion that there was nobody in the town who had uttered such a remark re Mr Gladstone and Mr Forster. Defendant said he could prove there was such a person, and on being challenged, gave the name of the plaintiff. Mr T. Sharman afterwards came in, and defendant asked him if he considered himself an Englishman, and said if he was he would not allow such expressions to be used in his house. Mr Sharman distinctly stated that the remark referred to had been used. William Williams, saddler, Charlton, was present in the bar of the East Charlton hotel on Thursday evening, the 11th May, at about seven o'clock. The defendant, Mr McMahon, and a few others were present. They were discussing the assassinations, when defendant said there were as bad Fenians in Charlton as in Dublin, and also that the plaintiff had said that it was a pity that Mr Gladstone and Mr Forster were not killed in place of Lord Frederick Cavendish and Mr Bourke. After saying this, the defendant wished to withdraw that statement, at least witness understood so. P. Quirk, president Korongshire Council, was present on the occasion. Defendant spoke to him (witness) and was excited. Defendant said, "Here's a nice state of affairs, they must all be all Fenians in Dublin because the murderers are not arrested." He also said, "I did not mean to call you (witness) a Fenian." To his Honor--"I felt hurt at being called a Fenian." (Dr Quick objected as to evidence of what the witness felt, unless he was able to state what the meaning of the word was. His Honor said he would allow the evidence, subject to objection.) Witness resuming, said that the term Fenian conveyed to his mind a man filled with hostile feelings toward Her Majesty's Government both in the old country and in this colony, and inclined to disturb the public peace in an illegal way. To Dr Quick--There is supposed to be a Fenian organisation in America and Ireland. A man could not insult me much more than by calling me a Fenian. John McMahon, draper, Charlton, was present on the occassion referred to, May 11th. The defendant was in the bar of the East Charlton hotel, and asked if the Fenians were arrested. Witness said, "I suppose not." Had a drink together, and parted friends. R.M. Klunder, publisher and part proprietor in the "East Charlton Tribune" newspaper, produced copy of letter written by defendant, dated May 15th, and published in that paper on May 17th. This letter was in reply to one written by the plaintiff and published in the same newspaper on May 12th. At His Honor's request, witness read both letters, also one from Mr T. Callaway, published with the plaintiff's letter. Mrs Curnell's name was called, but a medical certificate was handed in, that she was unable to attend. Mr F.G. Croker was also called, but his evidence was not particularly important. The plaintiff (Mr P. O'Sullivan) was then examined. He said that prior to May 12th there was an account standing between defendant and himself, and explained how he had gone to the defendant in his capacity as agent to pay rent, and mentioned that there was a "little matter" between them, when some great unpleasantness occured. Witness saw Mrs Curnell afterwards and told her not to send defendant again to collect rent, and that she would have to choose between defendant and him (plaintiff.) Witness had not been on good terms with defendant since. Remembered the evening of May 11th, saw defendant talking to Mr and Mrs Lamplough. Heard him say that Mrs Curnell had thrown him over through the d____d Fenian next door, and the first chance he would give him a clip on the nose. Witness went indoors and shut the door. Defendant's statements about him (witness) being a Fenian were not true, To Dr Quick--Was about four yards away, and not eavesdropping. Believed he had a right to stand at his own door. Acted as secretary to local branch of Land League, and also as secretary to the St Patrick's Day Sports Committee which position he resigned, but was not asked to do so. Remembered the evening when a conversation took place at Mr Sharman's hotel on 9th May. Mr Rankin (a traveller), Mr Sharman, and Mr Callaway, Mr Smith, and another gentleman were present. A girl named Agnes Hardigan was also present, attending to the table. Contradicted having ever said that it was a pity that Mr Gladstone and Mr Forster were not murdered. The distinction made in his letter to the "Tribune" was because Mr Forster was more intimately connected with the agitation in Ireland. A letter read from Mr Barrett to defendant dated 23rd May, asking him to apologise, was here put in. The letter had been received, but no reply had been sent. This closed plaintiff's case. Dr Quick before calling witnesses, submitted to the court that the subject of complaint was not actionable, not defamatory, and that there was no evidence of malice, and also pointed out that it was a privileged communication affecting a subject of public policy. The following evidence was then taken for the defence :-- The defendant (Mr H. Knapp) stated that he is a commission agent residing at Charlton. He was instructed by Mrs Curnell to collect rent due by plaintiff. Detailed conversation with plaintiff regarding this matter, when plaintiff abused him. Defendant told him to go out of his office, Remembered the time when the news came about the assassinations in Dublin. Heard of a conversation at Sharman's hotel, and that plaintiff was present, and made certain remarks. Repeated at Klug's hotel what he had heard had taken place at Mr Sharman's. Said to Bennett that "I had heard that the plaintiff had used the words." Would not say that I did not use the words, "Fenian next door." No doubt said something about "firebrands," etc, and referred to sympathisers. By using the word "Fenian," meant to convey that plaintiff was a sympathiser with violence, a violent political agitator, as leading to lawlessness, but not necessarily so. Agnes Hardigan was witness at Mr Sharman's hotel in May last. Mentioned names of people who were present at tea on occassion referred to. Heard the conversation. The plaintiff said that it was a pity that Mr Gladstone was not murdered instead of Cavendish. To Mr Barrett--Don't remember who asked her if she rembered those words. Defendant asked her. Said nothing about it till last week. Don't remember who asked her. James Smith, farmer, Lake Marmal, was at tea at Sharman's hotel on occassion referred to. Could not exactly tell in words now what took place. Remember saying that he knew what would cure Ireland, "put it 24 hours under water." Plaintiff said that would be all right as long as Foster and Gladstone was there. D. Kennedy, blacksmith, Lake Marmal, was present at Sharman's when the conversation referred to took place. The plaintiff said it was a pity that Lord Cavendish and Mr Bourke should be murdered, when others more in the wrong should escape. To Mr Barrett-- Never thought more about it till a little while ago. Counsel for defendant then addressed the court, Dr Quick said this case arose out of one of those national calamities or events which create a profound sensation all over the civilised world--a profound sensation and feelings of the deepest sympathy and commiseration with those illustrious statesmen who were associated with the murdered gentlemen. Here in this colony it would not be too much to say that every man, woman, and child were thrilled with horror when they heard the terrible intelligence. He thought the gentlemen composing the jury should, as British jurors, feel sympathy with any man in this community who denounced the man who expressed sympathy with such dastardly crimes. Analysing the letter published by the plaintiff in the local paper, in which there was no expression of regret, and alluding to the expressions used by the plaintiff at Sharman's hotel that it was a pity that Mr Gladstone was not murdered, he would ask the jury whether they did not feel a sense of repulsion and horror. The defendant had only circulated a report which reached him, but unfortunately through the rules of evidence he could not trace how he had heard this report. Commenting on the evidence given by Agnes Hardigan, counsel commended it to the jury's earnest and fair consideration, and dwelt on the evidence given by the witnesses, Smith and Mather, as sufficiently conclusive to break the backbone of this alleged slander. He would call on the jury to observe that not a single witness had been called to disprove what his witnesses had sworn to. He (Dr Quick) was prepared to call Mr Stubbs to disprove what Mr Callaway would have said. He would reiterate that not one soul had been called, and he would ask the jury to draw their own inference from this fact. The plaintiff had come solitary and alone to ask for �100 damages for alleged slander. No doubt the defendant made use of the term "Fenian," and he (counsel) would ask the jury to draw the inference that the defendant had used the word in reference to what the plaintiff had said in regard to Mr Gladstone and Mr Forster. He contended that this action could not be sustained by the evidence which had been adduced, and that in the use of the term "Fenian," the defendant did not intend to impute to the plaintiff the quality of being a traitor, but merely wished to say that the plaintiff was an indiscreet young politician. In politics, it was no slander to call a man a firebrand. Counsel here dwelt on the value of criticism, and contended that a thoroughly honest and straight man was not afraid of it. The term "Fenian" was one that could not be defined. According to one authority, it meant, "The bright, the good one," and according to another, "An attendant on an Irish King." He contended that it was absurd to suppose that the defendant ever meant to convey any treasonable imputation. Dr Quick concluded an effective speech by calling on the jury to find that the plaintiff did make use of the words imputed to him, and the defendant did not slander him in referring to them. Mr Barrett in reply said, the jury were asked shortly to say that Mr O'Sullivan was a traitor, and Mr Knapp a patriot, and contended that a verdict for defendant would stamp his client as a man not fit to live in the community. He (counsel) thought that the defendant was actuated by a mean and contemptible motive, and alluded to the subject of the first disagreement between them. Counsel argued that defendant was influenced by express malice, and referred to the plaintiff's letter contradicting the report which had been spread about. It must be admitted that the spreading of such a report was calculated to do the plaintiff an immense amount of injury, and the reason of defendant's so acting was to be traced to mean motives, and the wish to drive the plaintiff out of town. Counsel then analysed and commented on the evidence given by the witnesses, Agnes Hardigan, Smith and Kennedy. He would ask the jury by their verdict to put a stop to this miserable sort of business, which was too often carried on in these small towns, where mischief makers are frequently to be found going about setting people by their ears. He contended that the defendant had explained what a Fenian is, that he meant in other words that the plaintiff was a murderer, and characterised any one who would set such imputations afloat as a slanderer and a cur. His Honor, in summing up, said that the case had been argued at length with considerable force and ability on both sides. He was glad to be able to avail himself of the services of the jury, as they knew the people and the place better than he did. His Honor then in a most lucid manner laid down the legal aspects of an action for slander, and directed their attention to three counts, only the first of which was applicable in the present case, namely, "That to make spoken words actionable there must be the imputation of a crime punishable by law. His Honor then impartially reviewed the incidents, leaving the jury to decide, after hearing all that had been said, whether the defendant had been actuated by malice, or otherwise. The jury retired for about half-an-hour, and on their return into court gave through their foreman, Mr T. Stodart, the following verdict, "We are of opinion that the language used by both plaintiff and defendant was intemperate and unjustifiable, but owing to malice being shown by the defendant, fine him 1s." The costs in the case were L26 14s 8d.
  NOTES ON THE FENIAN MOVEMENT AND THE MURDER OF LORD CAVENDISH Fenian movement Pronounced As: fnn or Fenians, secret revolutionary society organized c.1858 in Ireland and the United States to achieve Irish independence from England by force. It was known variously as the Fenian Brotherhood, Fenian Society, Irish Republican Brotherhood, and Irish-American Brotherhood. The name derives from the ancient Irish Fenians, a professional military corps that roamed over ancient Ireland (c.3d cent.) in the service of the high kings. They figure in the legends that developed around Finn mac Cumhail and Ossian.
  Phoenix Park murders, name given to the assassination on May 6, 1882, of Lord Frederick Cavendish, British secretary for Ireland, and Thomas Henry Burke, his undersecretary, in Phoenix Park, Dublin. They were stabbed to death by members of the "Invincibles, a terrorist splinter group of the Fenian movement. Two of those arrested turned state's evidence, five were hanged, and three were sentenced to penal servitude. Charles Stewart Parnell was alleged (1887) by his political enemies to have been personally involved in the plot. A parliamentary commission appointed to investigate the charges exonerated him (1890).

East Charlton Tribune Sat. Jan. 6, 1883 We regret to notice that Mr P. O'Sullivan, of Charlton, met with a very disagreeable accident on the evening of the race day. He was in the booth, and was in the act of opening a bottle of soda water, when it burst and inflicted a very nasty and extensive wound on his left hand. Mr O'Sullivan came into town as soon as possible, and Dr Dean rendered the necessary surgical assistance. The patient is getting on fairly, considering the severe nature of the wound.
  East Charlton Tribune, Weds. Feb. 21, 1883 We learn that Mr P. O'Sullivan, of this town, who has been favorably known as a tradesman of a superior order of merit in the painting and decorative line, has purchased that well-known roadside inn, the Lady of the Lake hotel, from Mr A. N. Smith, and will take possession on Friday next. We wish Mr O'Sullivan every success in this new venture, as we believe he will make a pleasant and genial host, and as we hear that he has a good business connexion in the neighbourhood he, no doubt, will keep it together and improve it. By the way are there no cakes and ale sticking up out of this, the ale may retire, but we hope to get a piece of the bride's cake in due course.
  East Charlton Tribune, Sat. Mar. 10, 1883 We hear that the house warming given by Mr P. O'Sullivan at his hotel, the Lady of the Lake, at Wooroonooke, on Thursday evening last was a very pleasant and successful affair. There was numerous company present including a fair contingent from Charlton, and dancing, to good music supplied by Messrs. Nesbitt and Harper (violin and concertina) was kept up till the gray tinge which heralded Friday morning appeared in the eastern sky. The supper table was liberally supplied with a profusion of tempting edibles and drinkables, and later coffee was served to those who preferred it, and altogether the host achieved a great success in making his visitors happy and comfortable, as the company separated well pleased with the enjoyable gathering.

  East Charlton Tribune Jan. 21, 1885 --CORRESPONDENCE-- UNNEIGHBOURLY ACTIONS To the Editor of the Tribune. Sir,-- In the interest of the residents of Wooroonooke and the public generally, I would ask you to publish the following. For some time past, I have been trying to rear "pets," viz, cockatoos, parrots, etc, and when they came to be interesting they would die, as I thought, through natural causes. About two months ago I was again tempted to try my luck. I bought a very beautiful cockatoo. He (poor fellow) met with the same fate as his predecessors. That was bad enough, until a day or two afterwards, a turkey hen Mrs O'Sullivan had had sitting, died ; it got out of the nest one evening and was dead the morning following. Even then I suspected nothing wrong, until a little puppy belonging to me died. Having lost three within a few days, I then suspected that somebody was avenging themselves (and for what reason I know not) on me, by destroying poor harmless "little pets." I took the crop of the turkey to Mr Ogburn, chemist, Charlton, and had it analysed. Mr Ogburn has informed me that it contained poison (arsenic). Now, Mr Editor, I leave both you and the public to arrive at your own conclusions. In my opinion anyone who would be guilty of such an action would think but very little indeed of destroying my life, were it not for fear of the common executioner indulging in one of those little affectionate hugs he has so well acquited, which launches his unfortunate victim into that eternity where the poor miserable wretch has to give an account before that just and all powerful Judge of his doings upon earth. I may also inform you, Mr Editor, that about a fortnight ago a poisoned bait was picked up within a few feet of my door and within reach of my late cockatoo. He, however, on that occasion escaped the wrath of those cowardly wretches, but he was doomed to fall victim of their spleen. I trust they are possessed of sufficient reason and feeling to refrain from putting any more of their evil designs into execution, lest some day perhaps I may be tempted to do unto others as I have been done by. I remain, etc, P. O'Sullivan. Wooroonooke, January 18, 1885

  East Charlton Tribune Weds. Dec. 30, 1885 We regret to state that Mr Patrick O'Sullivan, the late licensee of the Lady of the Lake Hotel, Wooroonooke, has recently developed symptoms of insanity. He was apprehended in Charlton at noon on Sunday charged with being a lunatic found wandering at large. When brought before the local Bench, Constable Steel stated that he found the accused in Camp street near the Police station, crying out, "I see you ! There's 40 of you ! I have pulled my revolver and shot at you. It won't go off, but still you follow me and annoy me." The prosecutor added that the defendant had been seen on the banks of the Avoca river, looking into the water and muttering as if premeditating a jump into the stream. Under these circumstances the police asked that a medical examination might be instituted to determine the best course to pursue, and for that purpose the Bench made an order for the transmissin of the defendant to the St Arnaud Hospital for medical examination and treatment. Mr O'Sullivan was conveyed to St Arnaud on Monday afternoon.
  Charlton Independant January 5, 1886 On Saturday, before Messrs. Ogburn & Ruse at 8 o'clock in the evening, P.O'Sullivan, who had been sent to St Arnaud Hospital for medical treatment, was brought before the bench and discharged.
