I'm sure I need not ask you, have you called me by my real name and given me my real character? Kearney flushed up to the eyes, and laying his hand on the other's shoulder, said, 'This is exactly what I have done. I have told my sister that you are the noted Daniel Donogan, United Irishman and rebel. 'But only to your sister? 'To none other. 'She'll not betray me, I know that.
The present occasion so emergent in every way appeared to warrant both haste and security; and so, under cover to S. Maher, she wrote to Donogan in these words: 'I send you the words, in the original handwriting, of the instructions with regard to you. You will do what your honour and your conscience dictate.
'The police are to be here at one o'clock, said Donogan, translating a phrase of one of the bystanders. 'And is there anything for them to seize on? asked she. 'No; but they can level the cabins, cried he bitterly. 'We have no more right to shelter than to food. Moody and sad, he walked along at the pony's head, and did not speak another word till they had left the village far behind them.
Last of all he bethought himself of this man Donogan, a dangerous fellow in a certain way, and one whose companionship must be got rid of at any price. Plotting over in his mind how this should be done in the morning, he at last fell fast asleep.
'You are right there, Donogan. Here's how it happened, for it was not intended. And now he related how the name had escaped him. 'So that the cousin knows nothing? 'Nothing whatever. My sister Kate is not one to make rash confidences, and you may rely on it she has not told her. 'I hope and trust that this mistake will serve you for a lesson, Mr.
Though Dick Kearney was not usually quick of apprehension, he was not long here in guessing what the situation meant: it was clear enough that Donogan, being a friend of Joe Atlee, had been harboured here as a safe refuge.
'Captain Curtis is much concerned for any fault he may have committed in this unhappy business, said Kate, 'and he trusts that the agitation and excitement of the Donogan escape will excuse him. 'That's your policy now, interposed Kilgobbin. 'Catch the Fenian fellow, and nobody will remember the other incident.
The letter-bag lay in the hall, and Nina went down at once and deposited her letter in it; this done, she lay down on her bed, not to sleep, but to think over Donogan and his letter till daybreak. 'Strange house this, said Joseph Atlee, as Nina entered the room the next morning where he sat alone at breakfast.
And then she persuaded herself she would like to hear Donogan talk, as once before she had heard him talk, of his hopes and his ambitions. There was something in the high-sounding inspirations of the man, a lofty heroism in all he said, that struck a chord in her Greek nature.
The more she canvassed these doubts, the more she found the difficulty of resolving them, nor indeed was there any other way than one distinctly to ask Donogan if he would persist in his kind intentions when he knew that the benefit was to revert to her cousin and not to herself.
