They waited within the little shrubbery whispering to each other till they heard Mrs. Hurst close her own door, for they did not want any more of her society, though they had no intention of going in.

Jane laughed and sent him home. "I'm busy," she said.
"Is Mike Clancy here?" asked the visitor at the quarry, just after the premature explosion. "No, sor," replied Costigan; "he's gone." "For good?" "Well, sor, he wint in that direction."
