At the door of a modestly comfortable home whose steps we mounted, a thick-set man blocked my way for a moment.
Doors and windows were hung with thick, dark-red portières, and the walls were almost as white as DeValera's face. "Pardon us for speaking Irish," he apologized. "We forget.

I asked a young American non-commissioned officer how he liked DeValera. He seemed to be as stirred by the name as the young members of DeValera's regiment who besiege Mrs. DeValera for some little valueless possession of the "chief's."
"DeValera's just beyond the town," whispered Harry Boland to me when he decided that we would leave to see the president at seven the hour the executive was due to appear at the bridge. "They're searching all the cars that cross the canal bridges. If there is any trouble as we pass just say that you are an American citizen that'd get you through anywhere."
