"Tell me your names," he shouted again, "that I'll pray for ye all the more!" I wonder whether he ever did! He certainly was very much in earnest while the fright was on him. Not very long after my return from this Irish trip, we finally left Penrith on the 3rd of April, 1843; and I trust that the nymph of the holy well, whose spring we had disturbed, was appeased.
Dubois was declared to have insulted the profession; Dick agreed that Dubois did not know what he was talking about George Sand was a woman, not a man and Montgomery, who had a sister-in-law starring in Scotland, refused to be appeased until he was asked to accompany Leslie and Bret in a duet.
"Don't mind them," he whispered; "you really cannot expect to duena your elder sister. Tell me, would you actually like me to see if I could assist the virtuous tramp? You have only to speak."
