"Ah! you are flattering me, Captain O'Connor." "Not at all, Miss Regan; it's quite a sensation you make. My young friend Conway was tremendously struck with your appearance, and asked me who that splendid woman was."

But that's something." "I rather think," said Dr. O'Grady, "that I hear Doyle downstairs. We'll be able to get on with the business of the committee now, whether he has Thady with him or not. We've wasted time enough." "We'll waste a lot more before we've done," said the Major. "The whole thing's waste of time. There'll never be a statue in Ballymoy either to General John Regan or to anyone else."

"Who?" asked Father Regan, looking up from the letter he was reading. "The boys," answered Brother Bart, "the four of them that was left over with us." "Four of them?" repeated the Father, who, with the closing of the schools, had felt the burden of his responsibilities drop. "True, true! I quite forgot we have four boys with us. It must be dull for the poor fellows."

Captain O'Connor has spoken of you frequently, and we girls have been quite curious to see you. There is the music striking up. I think we had better take our places. I suppose as I am at the head of my brother's house we had better take the place at the top." Ralph never forgot that dance. Miss Regan danced with amazing sprightliness, performing wonderful steps.

He's getting his camera, and when he has it got he's going round with Thady Gallagher to photograph the town." Gallagher took Major Kent by the arm and drew him apart. "Major," he said, "can you tell me who was General John Regan?" "Never heard of him," said the Major, "but if he owns that car he must be a middling well-off man." "Look here, Doyle," said Dr.

Dave Regan burst his concertina, and they're in a fix." "But I can't leave the missus." "That's all right. We've got the school missus's mare and side-saddle. She says you ought to be jolly well ashamed of yourself, Johnny Mears, for not bringing your wife on New Year's Night. And so you ought!" Johnny did not look shame-faced, for reasons unknown to them.

Maurice Regan, the "Latiner," or Secretary of Dermid, had advanced to the walls, and summoned the city to surrender, and deliver up "30 pledges" to his master, their lawful Prince. Asculph, son of Torcall, was in favour of the surrender, but the citizens could not agree among themselves as to hostages. No one was willing to trust himself to the notoriously untrustworthy Dermid.

Here we are paying these fellows £400 a year each, and when we ask for a perfectly simple speech Oh, I beg your pardon, Father McCormack, I didn't see you were here. But I daresay you quite agree with me. Every one must." "Father McCormack came here," said the Major, "to ask about General John Regan." "Who is he at all?" said the priest. "A general," said Dr. O'Grady, "Irish extraction.

Then Leir, all in a passion, burst forth: "Since thou hast not reverenced thy aged father like thy sisters, think not to have any part in my kingdom or what else I have;" and without delay, giving in marriage his other daughters, Goneril to the Duke of Albany, and Regan to the Duke of Cornwall, he divides his kingdom between them, and goes to reside with his eldest daughter, attended only by a hundred knights.

He knew little of finance, but was an excellent bookkeeper; and, anyhow, was not corporation counsel Regan, another political tool of this great triumvirate, there to advise him at all times? He was. It was a very simple matter.
