But you can forget me, consider me a dead one. I'll never bother her nor you." Cavanagh threw out an impatient hand. "It is impossible," he protested. "It's better for her and better for me that I should do so. I've made up my mind. I'm going back to my own people." Wetherford was thoroughly roused now. Some part of his old-time fire seemed to return to him.
"Father Egan made no reply, but paused a moment, and then walked out of the house. "At the next house, that of Dennis Fahey, we found a still better dwelling. Here we had another mock certificate, but we received the rent with the costs." Patrick Cavanagh came to reside at Clonmany, County Donegal, about two months ago, as caretaker on some evicted farms.
He's the last rancher in the country to even stand for such work. What made you mention him?" "I passed him as I was riding back," replied Cavanagh, "and he had a scared look in his eyes." The sheriff grunted. "You imagined all that. The old chap always has a kind of meek look."
When Constable Brady put it to those present that their real objection did not lie in the fact that Cavanagh had been a stranger, he was not contradicted. At Carndonagh Petty Sessions, on the 18th July 1888, Con. Doherty and Owen Doherty, with five others, were prosecuted for unlawful assembly on the occasion above referred to.
All these things Wetherford did, and leaving the camp in ashes behind him, Cavanagh drove the sheep before him on his homeward way. As night fell, the dog, at his command, rounded them up and put them to bed, and the men went on down the valley, leaving the brave brute on guard, pathetic figure of faithful guardianship.
"It's a wonder they don't charge it up to Ross Cavanagh or some other ranger." "That would be a little too raw, even for this country. They're all feeling gay over this change in the forestry head; but see here, don't you want to get out for a ride? I've got my new machine out here; it rides like silk." "I reckon a hearse is about my kind," she replied, darkly.
One morning, as he topped the rise between the sawmill and his own station, Cavanagh heard two rifle-shots in quick succession snapping across the high peak on his left. Bringing his horse to a stand, he unslung his field-glasses, and slowly and minutely swept the tawny slopes of Sheep Mountain from which the forbidden sounds seemed to come.
Ross stared at him quite convinced that he had gone entirely mad. "That's mighty chivalrous of you, Mr. Sheep-herder," he replied, cuttingly; "but I'm at a loss to understand this sudden indignation on your part." "You needn't be I'm her father!" Cavanagh fairly reeled before this retort. His head rang as if he had been struck with a club. He perceived the truth of the man's words instantly.
Wetherford was also moving in deep thought, and at last put his perplexity into a question. "What am I to do? I'm beginning to feel queer. I reckon the chances for my having smallpox are purty fair. Maybe I'd better drop down to Sulphur and report to the authorities. I've got a day or two before the blossoms will begin to show on me." Cavanagh studied him closely.
Beginning at Cavanagh Bridge, at one end of which stands the great Singapore Club and the Post Office, is the ocean esplanade, the pride of the city. It encloses a public playground of some fifteen acres, reclaimed from the sea at an expense of over two hundred thousand dollars.
