On Tuesday, the 12 September, 1922, the “Ballinalee” (afterwards named “Rose of Lough Gill”) armoured car came down Ardnaree and at Donegan’s corner (bottom of Ardnaree)
began firing and a Miss Constance Tynan (Tullamore) was hit by a stray bullet and died.
She was a niece of Mrs. M. Caffrey, Bridge Street, Ballina.
(Researched by P. J. Clarke, Ballina).
