Phoenix Park murders Late in the afternoon of 6 May 1882 Lord Frederick
Cavendish, newly appointed chief secretary for Ireland, and Thomas Burke, his under‐secretary, were walking in Phoenix Park (Dublin) when four men leapt from a cab and stabbed them to death. Soon afterwards newspaper offices in Dublin received black‐edged cards, claiming the outrage for a nationalist group called the ‘Irish Invincibles’. They were never caught.
