This guide to Aras an Uachtarain in Dublin centers on a spring evening in 1882, when a man came sprinting through the gates screaming that two men had just been murdered nearby, while Lord Spencer, Britain's Lord Lieutenant, sat inside. The victims were Lord Frederick Cavendish, newly arrived in Dublin that same day as Chief Secretary for Ireland, and Thomas Henry Burke, the senior civil servant a secret society had been stalking for weeks.
