Abstract
The murder of Robert Corrigan in 1855 from the isolated parish of Saint-Sylvestre emerged into a national scandal in the mid-1850s. Corrigan, an Irish Protestant convert, was attacked and beaten by a gang of Irish Catholic men who were later acquitted. This book, a day-by-day account of the trial, is attributed to Richard Kelly.
