Murder Trial in Napolitan Regiment on Scaffold
Extracts reveal Captain Lynch and Adjutant Macklain faced the scaffold for the murder of Colonel Odeo of the Irish Lincoln Regiment from Spain. The officers, brutalized by their Colonel, defended their actions as reaction to abuse and an attempt by the Colonel to place his brother as major. Lynch shot the Colonel in the head as the latter refused to fight, while most officers are confined and uncertain of their fate.
