There are posts on this thread (11-14) about his arrest for treason in 1861.

Here is another item I recently found up on LOC regarding the dismissal of John T Holohan from his status of being a stonecutter up at the Capitol in 1852. I guess he was into politics with a big mouth even back then. 'Twas not the safest way to be with a government job, especially back then.

Just noticed something else from the above article. The article mentions John W Smith. John Holohan's father-in-law is John William Smith. John Holohan married Eliza Smith two years earlier on June 27, 1850.

I can start seeing where there might have been trouble brewing in that family from the way this is worded. Perhaps John W Smith was not too happy already with his son-in-law.

Am I the only one having problems opening the link? Would love to see the contents of this article.
