I believe it is Eusebius.  Sort of a funny name, I have definitely never heard of it before.

Wow! 6400 acres seems like quite a spread!  No wonder it was a month!

I have learned Eusebius was a magistrate and grand juror.

He is listed in "The County Familes of the United Kingdom" by Edward Walford 1869, and at that time had two addresses, one in Killorglin and one in Tralee.

In 1883 Thom's Directory, he his listed as a quarter sessions magistrate and his son is actually a petty sessions clerk at Killorglin, the same court as the offense.  But that is a few years later.

I have a feeling he knew the presiding petty sessions magistrate rather intimately.

I guess I read that wrong.  The clerk was not his son but a man named Francis C. McGillicuddy, not necesssarily related though McGillicuddy was part of the other man's name.
