4pp., 8vo. On the rectos only of four leaves stapled together at one corner. In fair condition, on aged paper with wear at foot. Printer's slug at foot of final page. The first page begins: 'KILLED 425 WOUNDED 1764 | This list of wounded only includes gunshot and bomb wounds. Very many of those kicked almost into pulp in the streets and left for dead are not included here. | CATHOLICS DRIVEN FROM THEIR EMPLOYMENT BY ORANGE MOBS 8,586 | NUMBER OF CATHOLICS DRIVEN FROM THEIR HOMES 22,560 | (This includes 500 families representing about 2,500 persons driven out of their homes by Orange bombers, incendiaries and gunmen in broad daylight since the 1st of this month).' Later in the piece it is asserted that 'The pretence that the Pogrom was a reprisal for the shooting of Colonel Smyth in Cork cannot be maintained.' From the papers of Robert Lynd. An occasional publication and excessively scarce: two runs on COPAC, at Trinity College Dublin and Oxford, both lack this number.
