Didn't see yer question until now - was too busy writen potery (check out the Fuzzled Post). Bad cess, eh? Not the sort of term a nice bear like meself would be usen. Could it be anyhin ta do with Cecil - the God of luck...

"Bad cess to" means a curse on and it could be linked to the need for Irish householders ta provide the soldiers of their English overlords with provisions at low prices "assessed" by the government.
