Declan's holy city of Ardmore. This embraces a beautiful and perfect round tower, a singularly interesting ruined church commonly called the cathedral, the ruins of a second church beside a holy well, a primitive oratory, a couple of ogham inscribed pillar stones, &c., &c. No Irish saint perhaps has so strong a local hold as Declan or has left so abiding a popular memory.
"Yes, sir; was tryin' one out only yesterday. Fine thing." "Reliable?" "Absolutely." "Know where I can get one?" "Over at Dorrotey's sea-goods store on the dock. He's got one er two for sale." "Thanks." He and Joe started away. "Next place is Dock No. 3. The Kittlewake, the Ardmore yacht, is tied up over there. Unless I miss my guess we'll be off to sea in less than two hours," said Curlie to Joe.
These boys, as you have no doubt long since guessed, were Vincent Ardmore and his reckless pal, Alfred Brightwood. This light had been playing upon the water since darkness had fallen, some three hours before. They had been circling for four hours.
Henchman, Ronald Macdonald; bard, Penelope Hamilton; spokesman or fool, Robin Anstruther; sword-bearer, Francesca Monroe; piper, Salemina; piper's attendant, Elizabeth Ardmore; baggage gillie, Jean Dalziel; running footman, Ralph; bridle gillie, Jamie; ford gillie, Miss Grieve. The ford gillie carries the chief across fords only, and there are no fords in the vicinity; so Mr.
The next day as they were moving in toward the dock, Vincent Ardmore approached Curlie. "My sister," there was a strange smile on his lips, "says you set out on this trip for the purpose of having me arrested?" "I did." "Well " the other boy choked up and could not continue.
And she is the first of all our old bunch that went to Briarwood and surely of those who went to Ardmore College to fetter herself to a man for life." "Well, I shall never be fettered, even if I am married," observed Ann. "I'd like to see myself!" "If the right man comes riding by, Ann, even you will change your mind," Ruth said softly.
The government wouldn't be dealing justly with the people if such standards were not observed." "And I am the cause of all this trouble for you?" cried Belle. "No, Belle, you are not. You have nothing to do with the matter, except indirectly. Ardmore is the one responsible for the trouble. If he had not insulted you he wouldn't have gotten into any difficulty." "It seems too bad, just the same."
There are volumes, too, telling of the serious loss by fire of a dormitory building at Briarwood and how Ruth Fielding rebuilt it by the production of a moving picture; of her vacation down in Dixie; of her first year at Ardmore College, which she and Helen and several of her Briarwood chums entered; then of Ruth Fielding in the saddle when she went West again, this time for the production of a great picture entitled: "The Forty-Niners."
"Do you retract the statement you made?" demanded the midshipman in a low voice. "I retract nothing," quivered Ardmore. "I repeat, and repeat " Dave closed in like lightning, Ardmore attempted to guard himself, but he was all but helpless before such a fast, trained hitter as Dave. The fop went down under two well-aimed blows delivered almost together.
"Isn't that a fact?" laughed Jennie. "I certainly am forgetting everything I ever learned at school. And, to tell the truth," she added, making a little face at her chum, "I feel better for it. I just crammed at Ardmore and Briarwood." Helen heard this. She glanced scornfully over Jennie's still too plump figure. "I should say you did," she observed.
