She could not really find out how far the Blakes had gone with Tony Jones in the matter of paying him for the alleged placement of Mabel with a theatrical company, but she guessed they had either actually paid a large sum, or had given a note that might be equally compelling. Also the notices that had been prepared for the press announcing her coming "debut" were very embarrassing.
The mother of young Lynch, having exhausted all efforts to obtain mercy for her son, flew in distraction to the Blake tribe she was a Blake and raised the whole clan for a rescue. When the hour of execution dawned, the castle was surrounded by the armed clan of the Blakes, demanding that the prisoner be spared for the honor of the family.
For the rest, I can't regret the friends who turned their backs on me; and poverty never troubled the Blakes." "But the taint the stain on your name!" "I have the advantage of bearing it alone, and, to tell the truth, it doesn't bother me much.
"County Clare!" exclaimed the cardinal; "then you know Ennis? Fifty odd years ago there was a house, just out of the town of Ennis, with iron gates and a porter's lodge. The Blakes lived there." "I was born in that house," said Miss O'Kelly. "It was draughty, but it always held a warm welcome." "I do not remember the draught," said the cardinal, "but I do remember the welcome.

Aunt more in temper than was expected. He dines here to-morrow with the two Blakes. I felt no other compulse to notice them than your wish.
May we not put a dis before it? "Silly Women!" "Noble Creature!" Did the Native mean that woman then was silly and man then noble?

But he himself did not hold himself lightly.
Will might feel himself master here, but I cannot." Carraway took off his glasses and rubbed patiently at the ridge they had drawn across his nose. "And yet, why not?" he asked. "The place has been in your grandfather's possession now for more than twenty years." "For more than twenty years," repeated Maria scornfully, "and before that the Blakes lived here how long?"
