Adroit Execution of Execution. Execution of Denis Daly, 1829, County Gaol, The execution of this unfortunate man, who was convicted at the late Assizes for the abduction of Ann Gallagher at Glanworth, took place on Saturday last, at the drop, in front of the County Gaol. In consequence of the
inclemency of the weather few persons attended, and even those were principally the
relations and friends of the wretched culprit, who arrived from the county at an early
hour in the morning, to be presented at his final exit from this world, and to convey
his remains for interment. About twelve o‘Clock he was brought out on the platform ;
he appeared to be about thirty –six years of age, and of the better description of
farmers. He did not attempt to deny his guilt, or the justness of his sentence, but was
perfectly resigned to his fate. After remaining a short time in prayer with the Rev.
Mr. O‘Connor; and the Rev. Mr. O‘Sullivan, (Chaplain of the |Gaol) by whom he was
attended, the platform gave way, and he was launched into eternity. This was the first
occasion for the services of the lately appointed executioner, and he seemed to acquit
himself very adroitly. Cork Constitution (08/09/1829)
