Cafferata's Diary

 

Note this is 1920 Nov 6. Two Auxiliaries (Cadets Bertram Agnew and Lionel Mitchell) are reported missing at Macroom, Co. Cork. It is believed that they were kidnapped by the IRA on their way from Macroom to Cork and then interrogated and killed. Their bodies were never found. Posted missing in the roll on 15 Nov. Agnew had a DCM, but no bar, Mitchell did not have an MC

The two men shot by C Coy at this time were

James Lehane shot by Auxiliaries 16 Oct 1920

Christopher Lucey shot by Auxiliaries 10 Nov 1920

Of these Lucey is the more likely as Lucey was shot after Agnew and Mitchel were kidnapped, whereas Lehane was shot before they were kidnapped.
