"Well having discussed that observatis observandis, quoad sacerdolem having passed my eulogium upon Father Finnerty upon my word and credit though, punch is prima facie drink and father, that brings me to remember an omission which I committed in my dialogue with you this morning.
This cannot be matter of surprise, inasmuch as the priest had his ears so completely muffled up with the collar of his jock and a thick cotton kerchief, that he heard not the allusions which the robber had made outside the coach, when he mistook him for Finnerty.
Not a word under six feet will be brought into the ranks grenadiers every one of them, not to mention the thumpers you will coin." "Come, Docthor Finnerty," said our candidate, pulling up a little, "if the base Latin which you put into circulation were compared with my English thumpers, it would be found that of the two, I am more legitimate and etymological."
Michael Conner would lead the poll, although the popular Finnerty might give him a pretty race for his honors; the gold watch was but an incidental attraction to please the young people and attract outsiders; nor was there any suggestion of names. Alas!
It was now near ten o'clock; Finnerty and she had been sitting at the fire in silence for some time, when at length she spoke. "Well, I hope there was no one out on the mountains in that mist." "Why," said he, "what is it to you or me whether there was or not?" "That's thrue," she replied, "but one wouldn't like any harm to come to a fellow-creature."
He and his daughter once more went out; but, alas! only to experience a fresh disappointment. Instead of Denis, it was Father Finnerty; who, it appeared, felt as anxious to be in time for dinner, as the young candidate himself could have done.
But although I daily suffered the most severe attacks from the public papers, I still had the hardihood to persevere in his behalf; and I never for a moment doubted the correctness of my assertions till one day, that, as I was passing under Temple-Bar, I chanced to meet Mr. Peter Finnerty.
I hope he won't disappoint us; he's a mighty pleasant gintleman of an evenin', an', barrin' your Reverence, I don't know a man tells a better story." "He entreated permission from me this morning," replied Father Finnerty, "and that was leave to pay a visit to the Bishop, for what purpose I know not, unless to put in a word in season for the first parish that becomes vacant."
Father Finnerty himself might say as much, for it would be nothing but veracity nothing but truth, Miss Norah." "Ah! but he wouldn't be pattin' me on the cheek! Be asy, Mr. O'Shaughnessy; there's Darby Brady lookin' at you, an' he'll be tellin'!" "Where?" said Denis, starting. The girl replied only by an arch laugh.
I accordingly gave him the money; but from that till the day of his death, he never sent for our horses, except when there was a foot and a half of snow on the ground, at which time he was certain to despatch a messenger for him, 'with Father Hennessy's compliments, and he requested Doctor Finnerty to send the horses to Father Hennessy's field, to ate their month's grass."
