Framed Print of Church at Oropos, attended by the Greek brigands and their prisoners, 1870. Creator: Unknown
Church at Oropos, attended by the Greek brigands and their prisoners, 1870. Engraving of a sketch by John Ellis of...the church where the brigands and their captives attended worship on Easter Sunday...The murder of the English gentlemen, Messrs. Herbert, Vyner, and Lloyd, and the Italian Count de Boyl, by the brigands of Attica... is fresh in the memory of our readers...It was ascertained by inquiries made in the village that the brigands, when they came there, seemed to be quite unaware that either troops or war-vessels were in pursuit of them; so that during their stay at Oropos they walked about the place unarmed. But Takos [Arvanitaki], the chief, having a spy at Scala, learned that a Greek gun-boat was off the shore, and the matter then assumed a more serious aspect. Takos now began to treat his captives unkindly, and decided on leaving the place...Arvanitaki then hurried the captives along the footpath leading to Dhilessi [where] our countrymen were put to death...In the skirmishes here a number of the brigands were killed, and their heads were cut off... Takos Arvanitaki and nine other brigands escaped the pursuit of the Greek cavalry at Schimitari, but several of them were afterwards caught...[and were tried, and put to death]'.
