Joined by other Members, I attended a service on Sunday in Killyman church to remember eight members of the Royal Black Institution in that small area who were murdered by terrorists during the Troubles. Those members — Frederick Greeves, Cormac McCabe, Samuel Clarke, David Graham, Robert Bloomer, George Gibson, Stanley Hazelton and David Wilson — were all murdered by terrorists in cold blood. Cormac McCabe, for example, was a local schoolteacher who was kidnapped and brutally murdered by terrorists.

I am pleased that the Royal Black Institution held that service to remember those people and put their names on a bannerette that will always be close to them. They will remember them, future generations will remember them, and it puts down the facts of what happened to those people: that they were brutally murdered. Those people were part of the community. They worked in their civilian life — just, as I said, like Cormac McCabe, who was a schoolteacher — doing things for the community and educating our people for the future, and that was how they were treated. It is absolutely despicable. I commend and congratulate Killyman Royal Black district for doing that and for remembering those who were close to their hearts and their families.
