p.172 "In the month of September 1873, alone, ... over three hundred pistols
had been sold in Mahanoy City. . . . On August 11, 1873, an Irishman, Edward
Cosgrove, was murdered in Shenandoah, and a young Welshman, Gomer James, was
arrested and tried.
p. 175 ... there were whispered threats of revenge, for Cosgrove had been a
member of the AOH (Ancient Order of Hybernians).
