    (continued from previous page)
    Archdeacon Kilkenny had a few words in the reading room Claremorris. Word followed word and at last Conor defied him. After a while they changed him to South Mayo. Then there was another election there. The priest put up another man against him. Conor was beaten by four hundred and eighteen votes. Then he got heart broken and at last he died with starvation.
