Book excerpt: On December 18, 1878, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania hanged John Kehoe, Schuylkill County delegate for the Ancient Order of Hibernians, as the king of Pennsylvania's alleged "Molly Maguires." From June 1877 to October 1879, the commonwealth hanged twenty additional AOH men in five counties in its anthracite coal region. It incarcerated dozens more. Thirty years after the first executions, the jailkeeper at Pottsville spoke with a reporter. "They met their death like men," the jailkeeper said. "They were hanged two at a time, and they died as they lived -- whole-souled, manly men."" Ten days after Kehoe's execution, newsman Patrick Ford said: "'Jack' died with all the coolness and courage of one of the old Christian martyrs." In this book, Kehoe's descendant, Anne Flaherty, unravels the mystery behind these prosecutions: who these Irishmen were, who wanted them hanged, and why. The "how" of these prosecutions makes for chilling reading. The Passion of John Kehoe documents both the faith of the condemned Irishmen and the eventual unmasking of the Pinkerton operative whose testimony condemned them to death -- Cover page 4.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On June 21, 1877, ten Irish-Americans were executed in the mining areas of Pennsylvania. All were accused of being members of a terror-ist group called the Molly Maguires, and all were convicted of planning and carrying out the murder of a number of mining officials. Ten more Irish-Americans were executed in Pennsylvania in the next 18 months on the same charges. One of the men executed on June 21, 1877, was Alexander Campbell, grand-uncle of the author. The Molly Maguire executions generated a great deal of contro-versy in Pennsylvania from the 1870s to the present, with Irish-Americans claiming the Mollies were framed by the mine owners, while some other ethnic. groups believe that they were guilty as charged and deserved the punishment they received. The author first heard about the execution of his grand-uncle back in the late 1940s in Dungloe, County Donegal, Ireland, and in the early 1970s, while living in New Jersey, began a fifteen year investiga-tion into the entire Molly Maguire controversy in order to determine if Alexander Campbell was guilty or innocent. A Molly Maguire Story is an account of that investigation."
