In the enthusiasm of the moment, Dennis broke the programme by rising and giving vent to a wild burst of feeling, telling his audience all that they owed to Peter, and though they knew already what he told them, they cheered and cheered the strong, natural eloquence. "Yer was out a order," said Blunkers, at the end of the speech. "Yez loi!" said Dennis, jumping on his feet again.
For instance, when I first became interested in politics, Moriarty and Blunkers were quite as anxious to down each other as to down the Republicans. Now they are sworn friends, made so in this case, by mere personal liking for me. Some have been quieted in this way. Others by being held in check. Still others by different means.
When Peter returned to the city, he was called down to a hall one evening, to witness a torchlight procession and receive resolutions "engrossed and framed" from his admiring friends. Blunkers was chairman and made a plain speech which set the boys cheering by its combination of strong feeling and lack of grammar. Then Justice Gallagher made a fine-sounding, big-worded presentation.
"Yer don't pay for nothinks, but der childers shall go, or my name ain't Blunkers." And go they did, Blunkers making no secret of the fact that it was Peter's idea. So every child who went, nearly wild with delight, felt that the sail, the sand, the sea, and the big feed, was all owed to Peter. It was rather an amusing experience to Peter.
It is curious, man's instinctive desire to stand up to and be near the object for which anger is felt. "You've been talking against me in the ward, and makin' them down on me." "No, I didn't talk against you. I've spoken with some of the people about the way you think of voting on the franchises." "Yes. I wasn't round, but a friend heard Dennis and Blunkers a-going over it last night.
I was in evening dress, newcastle, and crush hat even a bunch of lilies of the valley yet every man there was willing to shake hands and have me sit down and stay. Blunkers couldn't have been dressed so, because it didn't belong to him. For the same reason, you would have no business in Blunkers's place, because you don't belong there.
