Hem och 'Eise up' Why, thin, Phil Callaghan, you might thrate me wid more dacency, if you had gumption in you; I'm sure no one has a betther right to sing first in this company nor myself; an' what's more, I will sing first. Hould your tongues! Hem!" He accordingly commenced a popular song, the air of which, though simple, was touchingly mournful.
