Description
In the 1830s the British politican George Lewis described the fate of an informer in ireland as a man "doomed to certain death....he would be hunted through the country like a mad dog every hand would be raised against him".

A few months later this resulted in one of the worst crimes in pre-famine Ireland - The Massacre of Wildgoose Lodge......Tune in to hear the full story. *I have been admitted to hospital since this was finished so the next show will be at least a week late.* -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------This episode is brought to you by www.irishNewspaperArchives.com/podcastAs a listener to the show you can get 30% off monthly or yearly subscriptions by using the Coupon Code Pod30 at www.irishNewspaperArchives.com/podcast For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy
