McMahon had built up a book- making empire across the British province after starting work as a bartender at the age of 15. He was a well-known member of the busi- ness community here. He died when he went to the front door of his luxury home in the Jordanstown suburb to answer a ring at the bell. The bomb was thrown into the hallway, killing him instantly. Only an hour later, a hotel he had recently bought in the resort district of Whitehead was de- stroyed when the bombers struck again. Although they gave a five- minute warning of the second blast, the hotel manager was ser- iously injured in the explosion. In the suburb of Glengormley, another bomb destroyed dressing rooms at a Gaelic football ground during the night.
