   said Sir John "what shooting?" innocently replied Ryan. "You were there Mongo!" I saw it in your face" was the accusing reply of Sir John. "Admit it + I'll give you a chance to flee the country Ryan admitted it + went to Kill Bush + sailed to America. Before going however he went with Sir John to the scene of the tragedy + was under the corpse when it was being brought to Smithwicks of Lacken.
   [Smithwich was a cousin of Welland.]
   Ryan owned a large saloon in New York afterwards + it was the rendezvous for many a Tipperaryman that was forced into exile. A £300 reward was offered for information that would lead to the arrest + conviction of the attackers. Ryan Bawn who had been responsible for the organising of the shooting turned informer on his friends + Walsh, Hickey + Corbett we arrested. Walsh + Hickey were hanged + Corbett who was only 19 died in jail. His face was eaten by the rats + he was so disfigured that it was with great difficulty that his poor mother recognized him - he had a mark from boyhood two teeth broken in the front of his mouth.
   Ryan Bawn left the country + was never afterwards heard of.
