1920 Dec 11. He was caught in an IRA ambush at Dillons Cross in which a close friend T/Cadet Chapman was critically wounded. Hart stayed with his friend, who was in great pain, until he died a few days later.
1920 Dec 15. : At 11.30 a.m a group of about twenty Auxiliaries in two Crossley tenders passed Canon Thomas Magner, an elderly Catholic priest who was walking along the main road about a mile on the Cork side of the town. With him was one of his parishioners, twenty three years old Tadgh Crowley. Hart shot Canon Magner and Tadgh Cowley, in an apparently motiveless attack. A third civilian, a local magistrate, escaped by taking refuge with the other Auxiliaries.
Hart was arrested and court-martialled: at his trial, it was revealed that he had been a "particular friend" of TC Chapman, and had been drinking heavily since 11 December. T/Ct R Milward described Hart as "clean off his head" , "as mad as a hatter" and on the verge of dirlirium tremens". A number of expert medical witness testified that Hart was insane at the time of the murders and the Courtmartial concluded that he "was guilty of the offenses with which he was charged, but was insane at the time of their commission".
1921 Jan 5. He was discharged from the ADRIC. He was sentenced to be detained during his Majesty's pleasure and was committed to a criminal lunatic asylum. I don't know how long he remained there, but it was not sine die.
