Nutther, I I couldn't enthertain sich an idaya; and, besides, said he, with sudden energy, recollecting that the goose might be overdone, 'there's a religious duty, my dear Ma'am the holy sacrament waitin' a pair to be married; but Pat Moran will keep them quiet till mornin, and I'll be down myself to see you then. So my sarvice to you, Mrs. Nutther, and God bless you, my dear Ma'am.
'Who's that? demanded the lynx-eyed lady, who saw Pat Moran cross the door in the shadow of the lobby. 'That's Mr. Moran, a most respectable and muscular man, come here to keep possession, Madam, for Mrs. Sally Nutther, our good friend and neighbour, Ma'am, replied the priest.
Sally Nutther mind that, too at her special desire an' I tell you what's more if you make any row here do you mind I'll come down with the magisthrate an' the soldiers, an' lave it to them to dale with you accordin' mind ye to law an' equity, civil, human, criminal, an' divine an' make money o' that, ye ye mountain in labour savin' your presence, Ma'am.
'I thank you that'll do, Sir, said the lawyer, with a lazy chuckle. 'I'll now do myself the honour to make my compliments to Mrs. Sally Nutther, said Father Roach, making a solemn bow to Mrs. Matchwell, who, with a shrill sneer, pursued him as he disappeared with 'The lady in the bed-room, your reverence? Whereat Dirty Davy renewed his wheezy chuckle.
Sally Nutther, I say is well liked in the parish; an' if they get the wind o' the word, all I say 's this so sure as you're found here houldin' wrongful possession of her house an' goods, the boys iv Palmerstown, Castleknock, and Chapelizod will pay yez a visit you won't like, and duck yez in the river, or hang yez together, like a pair of common robbers, as you unquestionably are not, he added, with a sudden sense of legal liability.
'You persave, Sir, continued the attorney; 'your client I mane your friend has fixed herself in the character of an agent all the late gintleman's money, you see, went through her hands an agent or a steward to Charles Nutther, desased an' a coort iv equity'll hould her liable to account, ye see; an' we know well enough what money's past through her hands annually an' whatever she can prove to have been honestly applied, we'll be quite willin' to allow; but, you see, we must have the balance!
