When I took him the news of his father's death, and told him the creditors were swallowing what was left of Playmore, what do you think he did?" Old Christopher Dogan smiled; his eyes twinkled with a mirth which had more pain than gaiety. "God love you, I know what he did. He flung out his hands, and said: 'Let it go! It's nothing to me. Michael, have I said true?" Michael nodded.
"There's only one way to live, and that's the way I'm going to try." "Well, you'll not try it alone, sir, if you please," said Michael. "I'll be with you, if I may." "And I'll bless you as you go," said Christopher Dogan. England was in a state of unrest. She had, as yet, been none too successful in the war with France.
Having "nothing to do" there, "several of the Union regiments" are coming over, from our left toward our right, with a view of overlapping, and turning, the Enemy's left. It is about half past 2 o'clock. The batteries of Griffin and Ricketts have already been advanced as far as the eminence, upon our right, upon which stands the Dogan House.
In falling, he had thrown over on his back, and his haggard face was exposed to the sun and sky. At sight of him Dyck and Sheila ran forward. Dyck dropped on one knee and placed a hand on the stricken man's heart. "He's alive, all right," Dyck said. "He's a figure in these parts. His name's Christopher Dogan." "Where does he live?" "Live?
Let us see what it is: The batteries of Griffin and Ricketts, at the Dogan House, having nothing to fire at, as we have seen, are resting, pleased with the consciousness of their brilliant and victorious service against the Rebel batteries and Infantry columns, when they are ordered by McDowell who, with his staff, is upon elevated ground to the rear of our right, to advance 1,000 yards further to the front, "upon a hill near the Henry House."

Rickett's own guns, however, are so admirably served, that a smooth-bore battery of the Enemy, which has been stubbornly opposing him, is driven back, despite its heavy supports. And Griffin's Battery now comes rapidly up into position on the left of, and in line with, Ricketts. For Griffin also has been ordered from the Dogan House hill, to this new, and dangerously exposed, position.

His father had accepted a free passage, true, and Boyle had received a free homestead, but what of that that counted for nothing. Old Boyle had been a "PASSENGER," old Raften an "EMMY GRANT." This was the new community that Yan had entered, and the words Dogan and Prattison, "green" and "orange and blue," began to loom large, along with the ideas and animosities they stood for.
To the surprise of all, one Phil O'Leary, a poor but prolific Dogan, leaped at once from a hog-pen log to a fine brick, and caused no end of perplexity to the ruling society queens, simply paralyzing the social register, since his nine fat daughters now had claims with the best.
