MYSTERY OF DUFFY'S CUT RAILROAD DEATHS IN PHILADELPHIA

Rev Dr Frank Watson of Immaculata University

New evidence from Philadelphia suggests that the Irish railroad workers buried in a mass grave in 1832 may have been murdered. The bones of some of the 57 men from Derry, Donegal, and Tyrone were found in a mass grave in Malvern. Their deaths were long believed to have been from cholera. But the skulls show signs of violence. Rev Dr Frank Watson has spent nearly a decade to unravel the mystery at what's known as Duffy's Cut with his brother, William, of the Immaculata University. He told Sarah Brett how his interest began.
