He referred to Vincent Crompton, a 36-year-old sea- man, who, the police disclosed, was not an Irishman at all -having been born in Manchester-and had been in the United States Army, the British Army and the Interna- tional Brigade in Spain.
Crompton was sentenced to 20 years' penal servitude for conspiracy, possessing explosives, causing an explosion and at-. tempting to cause an explosion.
