What I mean is, indoors here there's no one to pull us up that I can see." "Oh! I see what you mean," said Pil. "Yes, you're about right there." "Gully, you know," continued Cusack "Gully's no good as master of a house; he's always grubbing over his books. Bless his heart! it doesn't matter to him whether we cut one another's throats!" "Not it!
These articles were signed before Limerick, at the well known "Treaty Stone," on the Clare side of the Shannon, by Lord Scravenmore, Generals Mackay, Talmash, and De Ginkle, and the Lords Justices Porter and Coningsby, for King William, and by Sarsfield, Earl of Lucan, Viscount Galmoy, Sir Toby Butler, and Colonels Purcell, Cusack, Dillon, and Brown, for the Irish.
After the captain's performance last week, and perhaps still more after his speech in the House a week or two ago, honourable men had shown themselves less active in "baiting" him and asking him offensive questions, and on this occasion he was only interrogated once, and that was by Cusack, who wanted to know whether they were not going to get a whole holiday in honour of the Rockshire match?
So off they went, and the Welchers' practice continued gaily till the bell for call-over sounded. "Riddell," said Cusack, who had become captain's fag since the migration to Welch's, "there's a letter for you." "Where?" asked the captain. "On your table. I saw it there when I was sticking away your pens just now." "You may as well bring it," said Riddell; "I am going to the library."
As it was, they resolved themselves into several small groups, each of which dealt with the topic of the hour in its own way. The juniors of course had a good deal to say on the subject. Pilbury, Cusack, Philpot, Morgan, and a few other kindred spirits held a council of war in the study of the two former immediately after supper.
Cusack and Welcher, who was caught climbing the schoolhouse elms one Monday, he sentenced to an hour's detention; and Pilbury, whom he caught in the same act on Tuesday, he deprived of play for a week that is, he said he was not to leave his house for a week. But Pilbury turned up the very next day in the "Big," under the very nose of the Parrett captain, who did not even observe his presence.
But I tell you what I'll do. I'll see him and Parrett and tell them about the club, and undertake that you'll be steady the rest of the term if they'll let you off. Do you think I'd be safe in saying so?" "Rather! I'll promise, for one," cried Cusack. "And I'll try," said Pilbury. "So will we," said the others. So it was settled.
"I don't know what else you call him," says young Cusack, rather surlily, for he is very wroth at the way Telson has sneaked himself into a rather better position than his own; "he's he's a Limpet, you know." "Limpets," says a gentleman near, "are the boys in the middle school." "Rather a peculiar name," suggests the captain.
"It's not you two, then?" whispered Telson across the bench to where Cusack and Pilbury sat in mutual perplexity. "Two things at least are comforting in what has passed," continued the doctor.
"Jolly right too," said Cusack, delighted to agree with his old enemy for once; "those schoolhouse cads are cheats, every one of them?" "All right!" exclaimed Telson jumping up; "I'll fight you, young Cusack, for that!" Cusack was somewhat taken aback by this unexpected outbreak, but was inclined, nevertheless, to accept the challenge. Parson, however, interfered peremptorily.
