1881-12-01event · Reynolds 'collared the son of the tenant, a man of 40 years of age', told him not to pay and that she would build him a house; he asked 'What about the land?' and 'affirmed he would not pay a penny, though he had arranged with Mr. Payne half an hour previously to do so'; the household effects were then put out (Aughabrack)

Dublin Express narrative reprinted at Stockton, read from the new vision transcription, which repeats some lines. The son is unnamed; 75 that he is Patrick.

Testimony as reported in both papers (one wire). The metadata calls him a defence witness. The reports do not say which side called him; his evidence helped the defence.
