MITCHELSTOWN

This article appears in Volume V18, Page 618 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: MIC-MOL
MITCHELSTOWN , a market town of Co.
Cork
 , Ireland, situated between the Kilworth and Galty Mountains, on a branch of the
Great
  Southern & Western railway. Pop. (1901), 2146. Here is the
Protestant
  Kingston College, a
home
  for poor gentlefolk, founded by James, Lord Kingston, in 176o. The seat of the earls of Kingston was built in 1823. It is a massive castellated structure, among the finest of its kind in Ireland. The Mitchelstown limestone caves, exhibiting beautiful stalactite formations, are 6 m. distant in Co.
Tipperary
  (q.v.). On the 9th of September 1887 Mitchelstown was the
scene
  of a riot in connexion with the Irish Nationalist " plan of campaign." The
police
  were compelled to fire on the rioters, and two men were killed, after which the
coroner
 's jury brought in a
verdict
  of wilful murder against the
police
 . This
verdict
  was ignored by the government, and subsequently quashed by the Queen's Bench in Dublin, but additional feeling was roused in respect of the incident owing to a
message
  later sent by Mr Gladstone ending with the words " Remember Mitchelstown."
