"Another vast assemblage" of tenant-farmers was gathered by the "new

organization" under "the priests," at Mullinahone, in Tip on Sunday last. A local account rates the numbers at 20,000, and adds that there were "scarcely twenty not coming under the denomination of tenant-farmers." Resolutions were passed against "rents double the real value," and in favour of " a fair valuation, compensation for improvements, and leases."
