No Prosecution for Alleged Theft of Royal Arms from Limerick Town Hall

The Attorney-General for Ireland has decided not to prosecute Joseph Ryan, a Limerick Corporation member, John Fitzgerald, and Joseph Egan, who were awaiting trial for the alleged theft of the Royal Arms from Limerick Town Hall. The Royal Arms, dating back to the reign of Charles I, were removed by Mayor Dafy and placed in a lumber room before their disappearance.
