"Go ahead, I say," replied Phil; "I have better game on hands than your confounded corps, or your confounded popish M'Loughlins." Raymond, who walked, pari passu, along with him, looked at him from time to time and, as he did, it might be observed that his eyes flashed actual fire sometimes with an appearance of terrible indignation, and sometimes with that of exultation and delight.
"Don't believe her," said Burke, "she's Papish " He had not time to add the offensive epithet, what ever it might have been, for Irwin who, in truth, accompanied the party with the special intention of repressing outrage against the M'Loughlins whom he very much respected having caught him by the neck, shook the words back again, as it were, into his very throat.
The most remarkable advance has been along the lines of junior play: the development of a large group of boys ranging in age from thirteen to eighteen, who will in time replace the Johnstons, Williams, and M'Loughlins of to-day. American tennis has passed through a series, of revolutionary stages that have changed the complex of the game.
"Indeed, I may say, my Lord, candidly and confidentially, that there is a spirit abroad upon your estates, which requires to be vigilantly watched, and checked with all due and reasonable promptitude; I allude principally to these M'Loughlins, and when I state that my excellent and well disposed friend is absolutely popular among your tenantry, even although he made them pay up to the very last gale, and that I am by no means in good odor with them, you will not be surprised when I furnish your lordship with a key to this same state of feeling which exists so generally in this country.

Indeed the state of society in a great part of Ireland shortly after the rebellion of ninety-eight was then such as a modern conservative would blush for.
Now that the fine old leases of the M'Loughlins and the Harmans, and others, have dropped, what can I do but study Lord Cumber's interest, in the first instance? Not but I would serve them if I could, and will if I can.
"The M'Loughlins go and look at Mary, and then ask yourself why you join the divil: there now, that's one. Who saved me? do you know that, or do you care? Very well, go now and join the divil, if you like, but I know what I'll do some fine night. Here he leaped in a state of perfect exultation from the ground. "Why, what will you do?" said Poll.
