In a sale ordered by the Court of Chancery, the Munster News, a triweekly newspaper based in Limerick, was successfully sold for the sum of £650. The winning bidder, Mr J. F. Coughlan from Kilrush, is a member of the family that originally founded the publication.

This sale marks a significant development in the history of the Munster News, and its future direction and management will likely be determined by its new owner.
