Then there was a rush at Mr. Martin and Mr. Sullivan. The former especially was clasped, embraced, and borne about by the surging throng, wild with joy. It was with considerable difficulty any of the traversers could get away, so demonstrative was the multitude in the streets.
Bracken, and Mr. Lalor, arrived soon after, and immediately the judges appeared on the bench the proceedings began. On their lordships, Mr. Justice Fitzgerald and Mr. Baron Deasy, taking their seats upon the bench, Mr. All the traversers answered. Mr.
Well, yer reverence, Mr Tierney! never mind, they could come to no good when they'd be parsecuting the likes of you! Bravo, Tom Hurrah for Tom Steele!" Such, and such like, were the exclamations which greeted the traversers, and their cortège, as they drew up to the front of the Four Courts.
The traversers severally pleaded not guilty. The Attorney-General, the Solicitor-General, Dr. Ball, Q.C.; Mr. Charles Shaw, Q.C.; Mr. James Murphy, Q.C.; Mr. R.H.

"They'll not come this way there's another way in for them: tho' they are traversers now, they didn't dare but let them go in at the same door as the judges themselves." "Hurrah, Dan! More power to you! Three cheers for the traversers, and Repale for ever! Success to every mother's son of you, my darlings! You'll be free yet, in spite of John Jason Rigby and the rest of 'em!
