April 7, 1868, Ottawa, Ontario, Dominion of Canada
Around 2:30 a.m., following a late night sitting in the House of Commons, Thomas D’Arcy McGee, MP for the riding of Montreal West, is waiting for Mary Ann Trotter to open the locked door of her Sparks Street Boarding House when someone comes up behind him and shoots him in the back of the head. Shortly after 6:00 a.m., blacksmith Pat Byrne is opening his Metcalfe Street shop when a rider pulls up with news of the assassination.
Growing up in Howth, a village near Dublin, Byrne has been following McGee’s chequered career. Now, with the Ottawa police investigating, and visitors to his smithy
speculating on rumours as to whom the assassin might be, he recalls McGee’s part, his own, and the Fenian Brotherhood’s numerous attempts to repeal the 1801 Act of Union with Britain and return Ireland to an independent country. Those memories are intertwined with his courtship and amorous marriage to Caitlin, a free-spirited midwife whose ideas about Irish independenceand marriageoften clash with his own. David Mulholland’s fourth novel of dramatized history asks the question: Who assassinated Canada’s
youngest Father of Confederation?

Excellent solution to prevent vial contamination.
Good fit. Helps keep my vials sealed and sanitary. Clean before and during each use to prevent issues. The large caps are a great fit on 10ml water vials and the small caps are a great fit on 3ml research vials. The price was good, the variety of size and color are nice. Overall no complaints to report.

Great for the price
They are very nice quality, but the 3ml are a little tight on the vial. This is not necessarily a bad thing, but something to note. The 10ml are a little lose on 10ml, but work great on 30ml hospira bac water
