Clonmel, Wednesday, April 4, 1827.
SIGNATURES TO THE
ANTI-CATHOLIC PETITION
Of all the Protestant Gentlemen and Landed Proprietors resident in Ireland, we give the names of the Anti-Catholic Petitioners from this County. It is a pleasing circumstance, that out of the numerous body of Landed Proprietors, only two dozen could be found, whose hearts are so corroded with bigotry, as to deny a participation of rights to their fellow-subjects. Of those insignificant few, we shall say more at a future period. The Slieverdagh Petitioners shall also receive a just measure of attention, when the hurry of the Assizes are over; we have received their names, and shall only now say, that such a list of ragamuffins (with very few exceptions) was scarcely ever presented to the public.

Followed by a list of names of people from Clonmel.
