Phoenix Park Murders
The Phoenix Park Murders〔Moloney (2006)〕〔Corfe (1968)〕 were the fatal stabbings on 6 May 1882 in the Phoenix Park in Dublin of Lord Frederick Cavendish and Thomas Henry Burke. Cavendish was the newly appointed Chief Secretary for Ireland, and Burke was the Permanent Undersecretary, the most senior Irish civil servant. The assassination was carried out by members of the "Irish National Invincibles".
==Murders==
Cavendish – who was married to Lucy Cavendish, the niece of British Prime Minister William Ewart Gladstone, and had worked as Gladstone's personal secretary – had just arrived in Ireland the day he was murdered. He and Burke were attacked as they walked to the Viceregal Lodge, the "out of season" residence of the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland. Thomas Myles, resident surgeon at the nearby Dr Steevens' Hospital, was summoned to render medical assistance to the victims.〔Moloney (2006), p. 27〕
The then Lord Lieutenant, Lord Spencer, described suddenly hearing screams, before witnessing a man running to the Lodge grounds shouting "Lord Frederick Cavendish and Mr. Burke are killed."〔Moloney (2006), p. 33〕 Responsibility for the assassinations was claimed by a small hitherto unheard-of Republican organisation called the ''Irish National Invincibles''.
