To north and northeast of the mountain went the two Armstrongs, seeking the stranger's trail; while to south and southeastward explored the Crimmins boys. If real, the giant bull had to be located; if a myth, he had to be exploded before raising impossible hopes in the hearts of visiting sportsmen. Then suddenly arrived corroboration of all the stories. It came from Charley Crimmins.
Passion left him weak and quivering. Crimmins judicially cleared his throat. There was a queer light in his eyes. "It ain't Dan Crimmins' way to go back on a friend," he began, laying a hand on Garrison's shoulder. "You don't remember nothing, all on account of that bingle you got on the head. But it was Crimmins that made you, Bud. Sweated over you like a father.
But I haven't introduced myself nor explained my presence in your garden. My name is Crimmins, Doctor Crimmins." "Glad to know you, Doctor," replied Wade, as they shook hands. "It was friendly of you to call, sir."
Moralizing on the deceptiveness of appearances, Crimmins fortified himself with another slab of cut-plug. Miss Desha, up on a big bay gelding with white stockings, was waiting on the Logan Pike, where the driveway of Calvert House swept into it. "Do you know that you're riding Midge, and that she's a hard case?" she said ironically, as they cantered off together. "I'll bet you're thrown.
He's app'inted ag'in." Dempsey caught up his hat and hurriedly left the room, followed by Quigg and Crimmins. McGaw, he said to himself, as he ran downstairs, must be blind drunk, not to come to the meeting, " him! What if he gives everything away!" he added aloud. "This news is awful," said the president. "I am very sorry for Mrs. Grogan and her children she was a fine woman.
For the first time the possibility suggested itself that Dan Crimmins, from the deep well of his lively imagination, might have concocted Mrs. Garrison and offspring. Crimmins had said he had always hated him. And he had acted like a villain. He looked like one; like a felon, but newly jail-freed. Might he not have invented the statement through sheer ill will?
Crimmins, to give color and confirmation to the story that worthy related later in the day of a particularly audacious attempt on the part of sneak thieves to get away with his mules and corn, and which was frustrated by his vigilance and daring. As the horse slowed down to a walk again a Sergeant of the Guard at the head of a squad stepped out and took him by the reins.
Crimmins tried to interrupt long enough to free McGaw's red pepper, but her words poured out in a torrent. "Now ye can go back an' tell Dan McGaw an' the balance of yer two-dollar loafers that there ain't a dollar owin' on any horse in my stable, an' that I've earned everything I've got without a man round to help 'cept those I pays wages to.
"Cripes!" ejaculated the veracious Crimmins, as wide-eyed he watched the filly fling gravel down the drove, "'e's got a seat like Billy Garrison himself. 'E can ride, that kid. An' 'e knows 'orse-flesh. Blimy if 'e don't! If Garrison weren't down an' out I'd be ready to tyke my Alfred David it were 'is bloomin' self. An' I thought 'e was a dub! Ho, yuss me!"
President, you have gone a long step in that direction in declaring the rights of small nations another step may be the means of reaching the goal for the Irish people. Faithfully yours, JOHN D. CRIMMINS. His Excellency, Woodrow Wilson. The President read this letter with a great deal of interest and sent me the following note, evidencing his sincere interest in all that Mr.
