Henry Mullady

George Berry, Edward C. Winslow and Wallace] and Joseph Theobald Casey (two Fenians accused of involvement in the escape of Thomas Kelly and Timothy Deasy during which a policeman was killed) he was indicted at Warwick Spring Assizes under the name he gave, 'Henry Shaw'.

He was reported as being a twenty-six-year-old carpenter, an active Fenian and being able to read and write with difficulty [his surname was also variously recorded as Millady, Maleady, Mullidy and Mullida (see image)].

He was with Burke at the purchases of hundreds of rifles, pistols, revolvers and millions of percussion caps and other paraphernalia in Birmingham in 1865, with Burke and Casey in their preparations in Liverpool in 1866 and at several meetings where Fenian plans were made to raid the arsenal at Chester Castle on 11 February 1867.

Jeremiah O'Donovan Rossa read out a letter thanking all but announcing they would stay aboard for the night.

A collection had been made for them to start a new life, and the following day they were paraded along Broadway with an accompaniment of the 69th Infantry Regiment (the 'Irish Brigade').
