But for the present Captain Yorke Clayton had saved both his character and his neck, to the great surprise both of those who loved him and the reverse. He had lately been appointed Joint Resident Magistrate for Galway, Mayo, and Roscommon, and had removed his residence to Galway. To him also had Pat Carroll become intimately known, and to him the floods of Ballintubber were a peculiar case.
"Take 'em gently through the firs; maybe he's lying out and down into the gorse, and then, if he's there, he must go away, and into a tip-top country too miles upon miles of pasture right away to Ballintubber," "That's thrue, too, my lord: let his Rivirence alone for understandhing a fox," said Mick, with a wink. The Parson's behests were obeyed.
But Father Malachi, in the neighbouring parish of Ballintubber, ran a course somewhat intermediate between these two. He, at the present moment, had no curate who interfered with his happiness.
The Ballintubber, of Ballintubber, would sound exquisitely, and then I should always be called 'Madam." Her beauty was all but perfect, as far as symmetry was concerned, only that there was not enough of it; and for the perfection of female beauty a tone of colour is, methinks, needed somewhat darker than that which prevailed with Rachel O'Mahony.
There was, indeed, a curate of Ballintubber so named; but he lived away, not inhabiting the same house with Father Malachi, as is usual in Ireland; having a chapel to himself, and seldom making his way into our part of the country. Father Malachi was a strong-minded man, who knew the world.
Here they were joined by another conspirator, a man whom Florian had seen down by the sluices with Pat Carroll, and whom he thought he remembered to have noticed among the tenants from the other side of Ballintubber. "What's the chap up to now?" asked the stranger. "He ain't up to nothin'," said Carroll. "We're only a cautioning of him." "Not to be splitting on yourself?"
He was determined at any rate that nothing which his father could say should stop him, as he had resolved to disobey all the orders which Rachel had given him. At any rate, during that night and the following day he made his way up to London. At this period of our story much had already been said in the outside world as to flooding the meadows of Ballintubber.
Jones, "and I would trust them in anything. There is Father Giles at Headford, and he is as fair a man as any clergyman of our own could be. You cannot imagine that he would give such advice to my boy?" "Not Father Giles certainly," said the other man. "Then down with us at Ballintubber there is Father Malachi." "I know him too," said Mr. Blake. "He would not interfere with a boy like Florian.
At any rate he's not a greasy Jew. Papa says that hating Jews is a prejudice. Loving you is a prejudice, I suppose." "My darling!" "You can't suppose you are the best man I ever saw, can you?" "It's a sort of thing we are not to reason about." "Then it's a prejudice. I'm prejudiced against Mahomet M. M. I'm equally prejudiced in favour of Mr. Jones, junior, of Ballintubber.
It was through his instance, indeed, that the Morony and Ballintubber properties had been bought, so that the acquaintance must have been well established before the purchase had been made. Mr. Blake was a man of good property, who, in former years, had always been regarded as popular in the county.
