My name is Agatha Rose "Irish Rose" Kinkade and I was

born September 25, 1852 in Co. Cork, Ireland. The oldest

of 11 children - 6 other sisters and 4 brothers. My father

died toiling in the potato fields when my youngest

sister was but a few days old. As near as I know the

rest of my family is still alive, for once I left home I never

looked back.

I came to America in 1870 to find a rich husband, but in

order to obtain safe passage I married the steamship captain-

Cornelius Hallisey. My family never could afford to

give me the education I so desired, and my heartfelt goal

was to become a LADY. So my new husband took advantage

of our long sea voyage teaching me to read. The 1st Mates

wife instructed me on the finer points of ladylike conduct,

how to dress, etc. She claimed I was a fast learner and a

natural lady.

�

When Cornelius died in an accident, aboard ship, I realized

how profitable it could be being a widow. Since I never

wanted to live in poverty again it was a logical, well thought

out & carefully made choice to live the life of a

"black widow". It starts out with me being a dutiful &

devoted wife.... until my then husband's wealth is at

an acceptable size. Then I quickly tire of them and

cleverly arrange their fatal "accident". All the while

I make sure I never become with child any of them. Since

I'm as "healthy as a horse" I figured I could amass quite

a fortune by the time I was old and grey haired.

�

Am I ruthless ? Consider this fact.... I've killed several

husbands and I stop at nothing to make sure they're

dead. Naturally I'm ruthless.

�

I get along very well with the rest of The Sweet Revenge Gang,

especially since they rescued me from a certain death,

when relatives of one of my late husbands suddenly

appeared. They use my talents of charm, ladylike demeanor

and expert knowledge of disguise to get details from any of

their potential next targets. I'm never recognized as each

time I create a new false identity.

�

The gang has a hideout in the Amarugia hills amongst an

extensive cave system. At first I was dubious about

living in caves..... but surprisingly it's quite comfortable.

�

I'm not afraid of being caught by the law, as I'm very

clever with my disguises. Besides...... who would EVER

suspect such a fine lady as I ?
