The planners of this event attempted to dry their soaked munitions, but they exploded, blinding John Grant and causing them to lose their shootout at Holbeche House. A response to the policies established by the Hampton Court Conference, this event was used as an excuse to kill off Henry Garnet. The plan for this event was foiled when Lord Monteagle read an anonymous letter aloud in front of Robert Cecil. Its leader was Robert Catesby, though its most famous participant was found in the undercroft of the Parliament building. For 10 points, name this Catholic plot to kill King James I by a conspiracy including Guy Fawkes.
