I then became furious, and received several smart blows, some of which were aimed at 'Barna Bredanna'. This quarrel so far increased the evil, that, to avoid their insults, we could only show ourselves in the streets while they were employed at school. I had already become a redresser of grievances; there only wanted a lady in the way to be a knight-errant in form.
This meagre figure, small, sallow countenance, heavy air, and supine gait, excited the ridicule of the children, who, in the gibberish of the country, nicknamed him 'Barna Bredanna'; and we no sooner got out of doors than our ears were assailed with a repetition of "Barna Bredanna." He bore this indignity with tolerable patience, but I was instantly for fighting.
The moon was shining brightly, turning night almost into day, and not a breath of air was stirring, so that every movement we made could be distinctly heard or seen by the enemy. Lieutenant Marshall Lee, with twenty men of Co. E 24th, was advanced to the water's edge supported by the rest of the company, and Co. A of the 35th, the whole under the command of Captain Barna Lane.
If your driver has come along with you down the street, he will point out to you the house of Barna Jenö mayor of the Commune of Marosfalva a personage of vast consideration in the village a consideration which he shares with Hóhér Aladár, who is the village justice of the peace, and with Erös Béla, who is my lord the Count's bailiff.
"'Tis well," said Conrad, and he drew from an inner pocket a sealed letter. "What's your name, young man?" Alexander began looking at his interlocutor with surprise and annoyance. "Come, come!" said Conrad, "don't be afraid. I don't mean to frighten you. I only want to know your name." "My name is Alexander Barna."
Where was the lad buried? Who was beside him when he died? Where were the few trinkets which he possessed; his mother's wedding-ring which he always wore on his little finger? Pater Bonifácius wrote to the War Office at Budapest asking for a reply to these three questions. He received none. Then he persuaded Barna Jenö the mayor to write an official document.
The others return on a given day they arrive by train Laczi or Benkó or Pál is not amongst them. Where is he? Well! they were not all in the same regiment; they have seen little or nothing of one another during these three years. The anxious mothers rush to Barna Jenö the mayor and he drafts a letter of inquiry which is duly sent off to the proper authorities at Budapest.

Irma néni said nothing for the first year, and even for two. She saw Nagy Lajos go away, and young Barna court another girl. That was perhaps as it should be. Elsa was growing more beautiful every year and there was a noble lord who owned a fine estate and a castle close by, who had taken lately to riding over on Sunday afternoons to Marosfalva, and paid marked attention to Elsa.
If you want the genuine, unadulterated article you must come to Galway, and especially to Barna. Look how she clings to it, how she holds it to her breast, how reverentially she looks down on it. Suppose she caught her foot on a stone, stumbled, and broke the bottle! There is piety for you! Education has been a curse.
