Lalor Maitland, a member of his Majesty's present loyal parliament?" "Faith, as to that, no," said Bridget, "and it's the saints' own pity, for if I had known that in time it's independent I would have been. No more wash-tubs for Bridget Connoway!" "For shame on you, Bridget, you that are an O'Neil, and the wife of a Connoway!" cried Boyd indignantly.

I felt that he had done so much for me, and that we were now on such terms that I might without presumption ask him a private question about Lalor Maitland.

For it was currently reported of Lalor in his own day that he had been a spy for the King of France as well as for King George aye, and afterwards against the emigrants at Coblentz in the service of the Revolution.

Peter Lalor was a young Irishman, not yet thirty-five, not far short of six feet in height, and splendidly proportioned; keen-eyed, too, with regular features and a resolute, convincing air. There was a note of domination in the man's character, and he was certainly the strongest personality in the republican movement.

"Why, I went over to Widow McVinnie's to milk her cow. It calved only last Wednesday, and I am fond of 'beesten cheese. Besides, the scripture says, 'Help the widows in their afflictions' or words to that effect." "After this man Lalor Maitland had got into the boat, what happened?" The Fiscal spoke sharply.

A deformed misanthrope, called James Lalor, endowed with a considerable command of vague, passionate rhetoric, began to write incentives to revolt in The Nation, These growing more and more violent were by the editor at length prudently suppressed. The seed, however, had already sown itself in another mind. John Mitchell is described by Mr.

As to his holidays, he can spend them with his sister or stay on in Edinburgh with the Doctor. But London is not a place for a young gentleman of such exalted notions of his own importance 'You bury me at a farmhouse with a family of boors! was what he said. Now, that smells Mr. Lalor a mile off. But the lad is not much to blame, and I hope you will not let it go any farther."

At any rate he missed his stroke. But it was only by a hair's breadth, and had it not been for his own sword and my fleetness of foot, the false Wringham Pollixfen might for the second time have vanished as completely as before, while if Louis had died, no one would have suspected as his murderer a man so important as his Excellency Lalor Maitland, Member of Parliament for the county, and presently carrying out the commission of the lieges within the precincts of the city of Westminster.

C. Dunlop, Baillie, Bell, Lt.-Colonel Gardiner, Dalrymple, General Stuart, Wallace, Sherbrooke, Douse, Hart, Lalor all well-known Scottish and Irish names, except two or perhaps three that may be English, but the Native puts them all, down as "English!" So does the editor of Murray's "Guide to India" describes those who fought under Duff, Grant, and Ford as an "English Force."

"And I know who put that foolishness into your head," said Lalor Maitland; "she regrets it at this moment, and has now come of her own will to tell you she lied!" And with a jerk he loosened the apron which, as I now saw, had been wrapped about the head of the swathed figure. I shall never forget the face of the woman as I saw it then.
