His deep, raucous voice had thrilled them as it uttered the word of belief and submission. When Mrs. Kernan came into the room, drying her hands she came into a solemn company. She did not disturb the silence, but leaned over the rail at the foot of the bed. "I once saw John MacHale," said Mr. Kernan, "and I'll never forget it as long as I live."
