The Clancys looked at each other; the old man making an imperative sign to his wife to keep silent. "That was the very night the rick was burnt down," he observed; "ye didn't see any one go near it, did ye?" "Aye, indeed, it was the very night," agreed Judy; "I lost me lovely pipe that night too," she added plaintively.
You'll find the Clancys rather cold at your next meeting." 'And he would be right in his guess? 'To the letter! Ay, and I shame to say that the young girl answered the signal as promptly as the mother. 'I hope it cured you of your passion? 'I don't know that it did.
Possibly it was the heart, more than the head, that ached, but in either case she needed relief from the exposed position she had occupied ever since Kate's return from the Clancys' in the morning. She had been too long under fire, and was wearied. Even the cheery visits of the garrison gallants had proved of little avail, for Mrs.
Not a word said Peter Rorke until he reached the Clancys' deserted cabin, and with his own hands set fire to the thatch; then falling back a step or two he rubbed his hands and chuckled. "There, now," he cried, "let us see if I can't make near as good a bonfire as Mike Clancy himself! Throw a sup more paraffin on, you, Pat; now stand back all of yous, an' look at the fine blaze.
Then I'll take you." "So do I want to make a short call, over at the doctor's; and you are going right to the hospital, are you not?" "How do you know I am?" asked Mrs. Rayner, reddening. "You do go there every evening, it seems to me." "I don't. Who told you I did?" "Several people mentioned your kindness and attention to the Clancys, Kate. I have heard it from many sources."
But neither the coaxing tone nor the touch of the soft clinging arms, which the girl now wound about him, moved Peter's heart. "Out o' this them Clancys goes, bag and baggage," he asserted; "if ye'd wanted me to let them stay where they were, an' them owin' me so much rent an' all, ye ought to have behaved different. But on account of this impident young sckamer ye go tellin' me ye won't marry Mr.
He made his will to begin with, leaving a good deal of money in charity, and the bulk of his fortune to Roseen; he left directions that the Clancys were to be reinstated in their cabin and emphatically announced that he forgave Mike. When this last item, by the way, was reported to Pat, the old man's indignation knew no bounds.
No, of course it isn't clean, and never will be; but no war is going to make it cleaner. It's not a way wars have. These talkers make me sick. If Clancy the thousands of Clancys could have been there, I think that is the sort of thing they would have been saying. Anyhow, personally, I certainly didn't lose my foot for democracy or for a cleaner world.
The chief families of Ithian origin were the O'Driscolls, O'Learys, Coffeys, and Clancys. Out of the greater tribes many subdivisions arose from time to time, when new names were coined for some intermediate ancestor; but the farther enumeration of these may be conveniently dispensed with. The Daer-Clanna, or unfree tribes, have left no history.
Peter's last hours were not, however, disturbed by any hint as to the Clancys' attitude, and it was with the most peaceful and resigned disposition that he, at last, betook himself to another world, with the full assurance that it would prove a better one. When Roseen had in some measure recovered from the shock of her grandfather's death, her thoughts turned at once to the Clancys.
