  	"The ringleaders ... were two 'politicals'; John Wolloghan, twenty-four years old, of Munster, and Peter McClean, forty, of Ulster. Wolloghan had been in charge of making the pikes, and McClean had recruited the rebels and given them their oath to kill the English officers and guards. The incident took place on Dec 14 1800 and the two men were hung that night, "summarily and without trial."
