Finlay, Samuel - February 1910 - Report in the "Chronicle"
A shocking affair took place last friday evening at Little Clandeboye a short distance from Conlig on the Newtownards side. The details are somewhat scanty at present but from what are to hand at present it appears that two men Samuel Finlay of Whitespots and William Lamont of Whitespots had been in Conlig and on going home met John Conn who resides at the gate lodge at Little Clandeboye. All were under the influence of drink and a quarrel apparently arose, when it is alleged that Conn seized a large bill-hook and made at Finlay, Finly probably threw up his left hand to shield himself with the result that his hand was completely cut off. Finlay and Lamont then ran along the road in Newtownards direction pursued by Conn who eventually gave up the chase. Finlay had just reached the house of James Woods of Whitespots where he fell exhausted. Mr. Woods was appraised of the occurence and got the arm hurriedly tied up. In the meantime Mr. David Malcolmson was also appraised and he hastened with his car and drove Finlay to Dr. Jamison. The doctor who was fortunately at home, had the arm dressed and the injured man conveyed to Newtownards Infirmary. The matter was then reported to the police who speedily went out and arrested Conn.
On a search being made the severed hand was found lying on the road. The following morning a special court was helt at the Infirmary at the bedside of the injured man, before Mr. T.R. Lavery J.P.  Mr. J.C. Magowan C.P.S. was in attendance and took depositions.
Head Constable Newman conducted the proceedings on behalf of the police with Constable Boyd in attendance.
Mr. Alexander Stewart appeared for Mr. Conn who was in custody.
Samuel Finlay the injured man deposed that he was in Conlig the previous day with a man called William Lamont at about 3.30 p.m.  He was drinking and rememberd leaving Conlig that evening walking. He remembered seeing the prisoner {Conn} with whom he had no quarrel, a few yards from Newtownards side of Clandeboye.. There only a few words used in a kind of arguement, he did not remember what the words were as he was the worse for drink. He saw Conn with and instrument something like the bill-hook {produced in evidence} and he remembered being struck with it. He then found the hand was cut off. He did not remember anything else except going down the road to Newtownards on a car. As soon as he got the slap with the bill-hook he found his hand off ....

Mr. Stewart: Do you know who struck you with the bill-hook

Finlay: Pointing to Conn, that man there

Mr. Stewart: Is there any doubt about it

Finlay: No ... i do not think i was drinking in the same public house at the same time, i do not know who started the row .. i do not know what the discussion was between the prisoner and me ... i do not remember being on top of him hammering him inside his own gate ... I knew the accused previously but i never had spoken to him

Head Constable Newman deposed that he proceeded the previous night to Little Clandeboye and arrested Mr.Conn between 10.30 and 11.00 o.clock. He charged him with inflicting serious bodily harm on Finlay and cautioned him with regard to what he might say. Accused made no statement. Prisoner had a considerable amount of drink taken. H.C. Newman searched the road for a quarter of mile as far as Mr. Woods house following blood marks. He found a cap outside Woods house. On his return about 8 paces from the left side of the hedge there was a human hand lying, which he picked up. H.C. Newman searched for the bill-hook. A daughter of the prisoner told him where it was and he got it outside at the side of the prisoners house. There were blood stains on it, he asked for a remand of 8 days to make further enquiries. Dr. R.C.Parke ststed that Finlays life was not out of danger. Mr. Stewart asked that the prisoner be allowed out on bail, he had substantial bail. His worship said on the face of the doctors statement he could not do so and remanded Conn in custody for 8 days.

Hi my name is William Finlay of Hamilton New Zealand I am trying to find history or evidence of my family in newtownards
My ancestors name was william he came to NZ as a young man 19 about 1862 possibly to Australia 1962 on the champion of the seas ex liverpool
It has been found his fathers name was william married to Anne Greer 1840 or 1832 we have a family bible listing his home as newtownards the cotton?
We are aware there are other irish Finlay families here from Dublin and Befast. One is Robert Finlay who came to Christchurch NZ with two children but 
his death cert doesnt give his birthplace possibly a brother or cousin. Also a Samuel and Family also A Sarah Finlay who appears to be a sister but there is no 
evidence only heresay and an old photo supposedly taken in Belfast with her father again no evidence on death cert to show where born
There is however conclusive evidence that a large number of families of newtownards came to christchurch McClelland. McClennan Finlay.Dalziel and at least five others who were 
all farmers here Mr Dalziel appears to have ancestors I have traced to America who wrote to the NZ family about deaths in the old country
I would like to find the missing family members of old william of newtownards if possible and which of the scottish branch was his ancestor
I cant find any death records for anne or william or matching will perhaps they emmigrated as well or succumed to the plague or poverty/
Kind regards
William Finlay
