Birth(+)Fact(x)Death(-) Calendar

There are no known witnesses or documents (victims, employees of emergency services and hospitals, injured, survivors or relatives of victims). Even after the 'wende' no concealed documents or witnesses could be traced - even if the extent of the damage was much smaller. Therefore, this accident is classified as a hoax.

69-year-old James Donnelly, his 60-year-old wife Johannah, and their children 26-year-old Thomas and 32-year-old John and their niece Bridget are killed with clubs, spades, axes and gunfire by 25 members of the ‘Whiteboys’ Northern Division in Lucan, Ontario, Canada. After the Whiteboys had committed their bloody work they burned the house to the ground. A small boy named Conner took refuge under the bed and escaped unhurt.
