If you catch her in, these next three or four days, you'll be lucky. Ah, brother William John!" The farmer, half frightened by Anthony's dolorous shake of his head, exclaimed: "What's the matter, man?" "How proud I should be if only you was in a way to bank at Boyne's!" "Ah!" went the farmer in his turn, and he plunged his chin deep in his neckerchief.
It was a notorious secret among the young gentlemen who assisted in maintaining the prosperity of Boyne's Bank, that the old porter the "Old Ant," as he was called possessed money, and had no objection to put out small sums for a certain interest. Algernon mentioned casually that he had left his purse at home; and "by the way," said he, "have you got a few sovereigns in your pocket?"
Before he could answer, and quite before the judge could reach the tragical group, she had flung her arms round Boyne's neck, and was kissing his tear-drabbled face, while he lamented back, "They're taking me to prison." "Taking you to prison? I should like to know what for!
They had been, estranged ever since; but the time had come when Dyck must at least secure the credit of his father's name at his bank to find the means of living. It was with this staring him in the face that Erris Boyne's company seemed to offer at least a recovery of his good spirits.
None of the loyal papers seemed aware of Erris Boyne's treachery; and while none spoke of him with approval, all condemned his ugly death. Driven through the streets of Dublin in a jaunting-car between two of the king's police, Dyck was a mark for abuse by tongue, but was here and there cheered by partizans of the ultra-loyal group to which his father adhered.
It is stated in "Boyne's Trade Tokens," ed. The Dutch East India Company introduced tea into Europe in 1610, and it is said to have been first imported into England from Holland about 1650. The English "East India Company" purchased and presented 2 lbs. of tea to Charles II. in 1660, and 23 lbs. in 1666. By act 12 Car. Then came Col.
Boyne's just promised to come over to dinner to-morrow night." Her glance asked me to accept the fib and the invitation. "I want both of you." "I'm going to be at your house anyhow, Ina," Barbara said, "working with Skeet painting those big banners they've tacked up out in your court. You'll have to feed us; but we'll be pretty messy. I don't know about a dinner party."
I give it to you now to see, so you may not be astonished when you see her." The governor stared at the paper. "Boyne's wife, eh?" he said in a strange mood. "Boyne's wife what is she doing here?" Calhoun told him briefly as he took the paper back, and added: "It was accident that brought us all together here, your honour, but the hand of God is in it." "Is she very ill?"
It leaped out at her suddenly, like a grin out of the dark, that they had often called England so little "such a confoundedly hard place to get lost in." A CONFOUNDEDLY HARD PLACE TO GET LOST IN! That had been her husband's phrase. In the fortnight since Boyne's disappearance there had been no word of him, no trace of his movements.
Then, when he did turn round, it was too late. The knife she carried under her skirt flashed out and into Boyne's heart. He collapsed on the floor without a sound, save only a deep sigh. Stooping over, Noreen drew the knife out with a little gurgling cry a smothered exclamation. Then she opened the door again the side-door leading into the street-closed it softly, and was gone.
