Blood on the moon, he said of a case, stained windows shed light, old face an Irish newcomer settles in Canada as a tailor soon mired in tragedy, his own defense, a failure. applied laws were rigged, not done today? national issues from Ireland, tossed in the foray a suspected anti-Fenian was probably taught a lesson sympathizers to national spirit wanted a special mention. Fenians were anxious to bring their issues to a wider forum McGee wanted national causes left at home, a new decorum Whalen was found guilty by the same judge who headed the appeal, had witnessed evidence in his favour but encountered a biased ordeal He could not question Judge Richards, he was a god Fenian supports pointed to his involvement as a cause. In the middle lied Canada, newly emerged from the British and the French had to deal with issues which sprang from the old country and stenched.
