   that Mn Pane gave Uniacke was I saw you passing this way yesterday, I had all your description in my possession. But I would not have your blood on me and I knew one of your own creed would betray you. He seated him in his parlour and ordered a fine break fast to be brought before the prisoner a part of which consisted of a cooked bird. It was rather unusual for a country man to use a knife and fork in those days but Uniacke picked every atom of flesh in the bird without even disturbing a bone from its place until the skeleton was left intact. It is said that Pane was so overcome by his act and realising that his prisoner was a man of exceptional qualities exclaimed "cursed be that man that brought you before my children and me". This perhaps might have been true as Coughlan never received one penny reward. It was the Goods that were paid for his treacherous act. The informer got nothing and the remainder of his life was spent in misery and misfortune not to mention his unpopularity. He died in a wretched cabin in Slaveen some four yards west of the place now known as the Gearagh Bar.
