Was the shooter officer in the pro-British protestant paramilitary - Ulster Vounteer Force (UVF)? Were the shot, Irish Catholic/Nationalist/Republican passengers? Was the shooter who shot the officer in reprisal an Irish Republican Army (IRA) man? Gee! What an exciting voyage. Agatha Christie would be green with envy. And where was Inspector Poirot when they needed him? Swimming for his frickin' life, I'd imagine.

Excellent article. Though I have the same last name I'm not related to Bertha Mulvihil, however she does have desendents in Providence, Rhode Island.

I was delighted to see Senan Maloney's reprint of Eugene Daly's story. I am his granddaughter and namesake (Eugenie). I am so pleased that this will reach a whole new audience. He was a great man and a true hero. Thank you.
