From the Wikipedia article
The Clandeboye massacre in 1574 was a massacre of the O'Neills of Lower Clandeboye by the English forces of Walter Devereux, 1st Earl of Essex.

The Lord of Lower Clandeboye, Sir Brian McPhelim O'Neill, had violently opposed these attempts at colonisation.

Essex ordered that O'Neill, his wife and brother be seized and executed for treason and for opposing the plantations.
