A medical student in Dublin, Kevin Barry was arrested in September 1920 after taking part in an IRA ambush in which three British soldiers were killed. Though ‘just a lad of eighteen summers’, he was sentenced to death and hanged, allegedly after being tortured in an attempt to secure information about his comrades.
