Of James Steile. 3 Dep. Of the Redferns, father and son. 1 Dep. Of Lady Staples. Reid. 1642] TWENTY-FOUR BURNED IN A COTTAGE 217 A very similar scene of butchery, but on a larger scale, was enacted at the same time at Kilmore, Co. Armagh, from which it would seem that the spirit of destruction had been generally aroused throughout northern Ulster. The massacre at Kilmore was not only more extensive than those at Lissan and Moneymore, but was also of a more horrible nature. One incident was part...icularly dreadful. Twenty-seven British men, women and children mostly women and children were driven into a thatched cottage belonging to an old woman named Mrs. Anne Smith, who lived there with her daughter Margaret Clarke and her grandchildren. After the prisoners had been confined within the cottage, a mob armed with pikes, skeans and bludgeons, headed by a woman named Jane Hamskin, set fire to the thatch in several places. The cottage soon became a furnace, and in the end the roof fell in on twenty-four charred bodies.
