 night His name IS Michael Cooney ,and has an old sobriquet ''The Fox" Coon ey and Burke are claimed to be the two men who actually killed Cronin. Both are Clan na Gael members of Camp 20. Cooney is a bricklayer by trade, and like Burke came here from Ireland only a few years ago. Burke's number in camp20 was 108 Cooney's 109.
