The Gordon Bennett Motor Race

Snippets

Leinster Leader, Saturday 13 June 1903 - Page 8.

ALLEGED RECKLESS DRIVING.
John Nolan, Kilteel, was prosecuted by Sergeant Porter with furious driving on the public road, and, by such misbehaviour, causing serious damage to property.
Mr. W. A. Lanphier, solicitor, appeared on behalf of the defendant, and requested the bench to adjourn the case until after the September Quarter Sessions. He understood that the damage charged consisted in the killing of a mare, the property of a man named Conway, who, he further understood, intended to take Civil proceedings against the defendant for recovery of damages.
The Bench, after some discussion, adjourned the case till the 5th October.
