From The Irish Times, 3 March 1906 -

At the Fermoy Petty Sessions, Dr. Williams said, with the
permission of the chairman, he wished to refer to the coming
departure of Sergeant Booth from the town on promotion to
the Depot. The sergeant was stationed in Fermoy for the past
six years, and during that time he was called on to perform
very onerous duties for the peace of the district. He (Dr.
Williams) felt certain he was only voicing the feelings of the
Bench in expressing regret at losing such a very efficient
police officer. The chairman, Dr. T. M. W. Aherne, Mr.
Dickson, R.M., and others endorsed these remarks, and
Sergeant Booth having thanked the Bench for their kind
expressions, the chairman concluded by wishing him every
success in his new sphere.
