Description

We focus on Manx hero William Christian, known as Illiam Dhone, who was put to death by firing squad at Hango Hill near Castletown through the machinations of Charles Stanley, the Eighth Earl of Derby, on 2nd January 1663.

Our story in Manx is a translation of one by Steve Caplin about a bar with an unusual clientele.
