- (continued from previous page)Greaghnafarna, stands to-day. On the night he died, Bartly Creamer was coming from a friend’s house near by, and on passing the road where Kelly fell he was held up by two members of the R.I.C., Constables Kenny and Cleary, who promptly placed him under arrest and charged him with the murder of John Kelly. This happened early in the month of November. From that day Bartly Creamer was a prisoner in Sligo jail until the following March.
When he was tried at the Connaught Winter Assizes in Galway and the evidence for the Crown failed to Carry out a Conviction
