In this cafe, tried at the Cork Aflizes, the prifoner flood indicted for a burglary, and attempt to rob the houfe of Sir John Purcell at Highfort, on the night of the i ith. of March laft. The trial excited conliderable intereit, & the Court was crowded at an early hour on Monday—every body fecmed anx¬ ious to hear the narration of a tranfaction, in which on one fide though the guilt exhibited may be but too frequently equalled, the courage, intrepidity and toolneis difplayed on the other, has been never exceeded, and feldom indeed has it been matched in the hiftory of human rcfolution. Sir John Purcell, the firft wit- nefs called, depofed a molt inter- efting and manly ftatement, the fubftancc of which only we pre¬ tend to report. He faid, that on the night of the nth of March laft, about one o'clock at ni?;ht, & after he had retired to bed, he heard fome noiie outfide the win- dow of his parlour. He flept on the ground floor in a room immc- diately adjoining the parlour. There was a door from one room into the other, but this having been inconvenient, and there be¬ ing; another paffi^e from the bed- chamber more accommodating, it was nailed up, and fome of ti\e fur¬ niture of the parlour placed againft it. Shortly after Sir John heard the noife in front of his houfe, the windows of the parlour were dafli- ed in, and the noife occafioned by the feet of the robbers in leapincr from the windows down upon the parlour, appeared to denote a gang not lefs than 14 in number, as" it ftruck him. He immediately got out of bed, and the lirft deterniin- a lion he took being to make refil- tance, it was with no ftnall morti¬ fication that he reflected upon the unarmed condition in which he Was placed, being deftitute of a fmgle weopon of the ordinary fort. In this ftate he fpent little time in deliberation, as it almoft immedi¬ ately occurred to him that having fupped in the bed-chamber on that night, a knife had been left behind by accident, and he inftantly pro¬ ceeded to grope in the dark for this weapon, which happily he found, before the door, leading from the parlour into the bed chamber, had been broken. While he ftood in calm but refolute ex- - pectation that the progrefs of the robbers would foon lead them to his bed chamber, he heard the fur¬ niture which had been placed a- guinft the nailed-up door expedi- tioufly difplaced, and immediately afterwards this door was burft o- - pen. The moon fhone with great brightnefs, cc when this door was thrown open, the light ftreaming in through three large windows in the psrlour, afforded Sir John a view that migfat have made an in- trepid fplrit not a little apprehen¬ sive. His bed-room was darkened to excfcfs, in cenfequence of thn fhutters of the windows, as well as the curtains being doled -, and
