I need a little help with handwritting  . . . .

I've uncovered an entry for an Edward Loftus at the north dublin workhouse date of entry 20th April 1900 but on the last column (date deceased or removed from workhouse) i can't quite make out what it says

https://www.findmypast.ie/search/results?datasetname=dublin%20workhouses%20admission%20%26%20discharge%20registers%201840-1919&firstname=edward&firstname_variants=true&lastname=loftus&yearofbirth=1892&yearofbirth_offset=2

I think it says " xxxxxxxxxxRoberts by order 24th May 1901 Mr Fagan R.C" but not sure about the first words? Can any one help.

I also found an entry for what i think is same family entering workhouse on 6th June 1901 for Edward (8yrs), Mary (7yrs) and Thomas (6yrs) what was Ormond Market and why would Mary have been sent to Sligo. Also is the entry of "to Police" meant for Edward and Thomas or for the entries either side - surely 8 and 6 yrs was way too young to be sent to a police training school??

Give a man a record and you feed him for a day.
Teach a man to research, and you feed him for a lifetime.
