Keegan; when the home came to be taken from over her head, what would become of Feemy? She and the owld man could hardly live on a pound a week. And when the owld man should die " "Why, nonsense, man! Isn't your sister as good as married? or if not, a strapping girl like her is sure of a husband. Besides, when she's a hundred pounds in her pocket, she won't have to go far to look for a lover.
"Heaven's blessing on you, Feemy, my daughter; may you live many happy years with the man you love." Feemy soon left him, and went to bed, and Katty, who had been dispatched to Drumsna, returned with her mistress's small box, and a kind message from Mrs. McKeon: "Her kind love to Miss Macdermot; she hoped she had felt the walk of service to her, and she would call some time during the next week."
Thady quickly withdrew it, for he saw it was all covered with blood; Feemy, however, had seen it, for she screamed loudly she had raised her head to answer, and at last she said "Kiss you! no; I hate you you're a murdherer; you've murdhered him because you knew I loved him; go away go out of that; you'll kill me too if you stand there with his blood upon your hand!"
Keegan, finding that his host did not seem bent on hospitality, was edging himself into the room, when Feemy, who had heard his address to her father, came out to the old man's relief, and told the visitor that he was not just himself that morning that Thady was out, but that she would desire him to call at Mr. Keegan's office the next day. "Ah!
"You may be sure I shall not put my father against anything which would be good for him or Feemy " "Well, Mr. Thady, so far so good; and I'm sure you wouldn't; besides, what I've got to say is greatly to your own advantage." "Well, Mr. Keegan, out with it." "Why, you see, Mr.
But of late things were altered. Feemy had got a lover. Her novels ceased to interest her; she did not care about going to Carrick, and the Miss McKeons were neglected. It was only quite lately, however, that Feemy had begun to show signs of petulance and ill temper.
If it wasn't in a kind mother, with such a heart as your own, especially in one she'd known so long, in whom could a poor motherless, friendless girl, like Feemy, expect to find a friend?" "God forbid I should hurt her, Father John! And indeed I'd befriend her if I knew how; but don't you think, yourself now, she's played a foolish game with that young man?"
There was but one other there that did not seem bent on enjoyment, and this was poor Feemy. There she was, sitting on the same side of the car with Lyddy McKeon; and the good-natured mother had taken care that this should be the side facing the horses; but Feemy took no interest in them.
He had only been told it that morning at Mohill, as a secret, and he therefore presumed that Feemy did not know it.
If you are there first, as you will be, walk a few steps along the Mohill road, so as to meet me; no one will know you, if you should meet any one, for it will be nearly if not quite dark; the moon won't rise till past ten; do you understand, Feemy?" "Oh, yes, I understand!" "Well, good night then, my own love, for I must be off." "But, Myles, I want to say one thing."
