- (continued from previous page)Leyne went back to journalism following his release, and in 1864 withdrew from the staff of "The Nation" to edit The Tipperary Leader a journal founded by the advannced priests of Tipperary. In 1854, on either June or August 29th the first member of the new paper appeared but on that day Mr Leyne died of Typhus Fever. Another of Ireland's noble sons + brightest intellects was no more. It was in connection with the new paper that he came to Thurles, so he did not far from the scene of his arrest. To his last breath Mr Leyne was a staunch upholder of the honour + independence of his country and in its cause he hazarded all that was dear to him in life.
