Brian Fitzgerald's life hangs on a thread, and that thread is Sal Rawlins." "Yes!" assented Kilsip, rubbing his hands together. "Even if Mr. Fitzgerald acknowledges that he was at Mother Guttersnipe's on the night in question, she will have to prove that he was there, as no one else saw him." "Are you sure of that?" "As sure as anyone can be in such a case.
The weapon slid merrily away to the outer office between Detective Fitzgerald's feet. But this was not all. The dryer-door, having disposed of one threatening revolver, slammed violently against the wall. The wall was merely a thin partition, neatly paneled on the office side, but with shelves containing cleaning-and-dyeing supplies on the other. The impact shook the partition.
Moor was FitzGerald's Woodbridge lawyer, and no doubt he and other friends of FitzGerald thought that the affairs of the partnership of FitzGerald and Fletcher were not carried on with such precision as was desirable. Possibly they were right. But then, Posh couldn't be precise. I have failed to get any intelligible account out of Posh as to that rum-flip orgy. All he could do was to chuckle.
Fitzgerald's Tom?" she inquired. "Yes, Missis," replied the negro, touching his hat. She beckoned him to come and open her carriage-door, and, speaking in a low voice, she said: "I want to ask you about a Spanish lady who used to live in a cottage, not far from Mr. Fitzgerald's plantation.

The schooner was, Posh tells me, exceptionally cheap, and FitzGerald's reference to her meant that she was too cheap to be good.
There is no virtue in poverty no merit in rags the uncouth qualities in Socrates were not a recommendation. Yet he was himself. But Plato made good, in his own character, all that Socrates lacked. Some one has said that Fitzgerald's Omar is two-thirds Fitzgerald and one-third Omar.
But as yet the kindly, generous-hearted gentleman had no thought of breaking with his protege altogether, or of depriving him of the use of the Meum and Tuum or Henrietta, both of which had been bought with his, FitzGerald's, money. But he would no longer be a partner. So Mr.
Blunders are occasionally made of course: the most remarkable in recent times was probably an oversight of the editor of Edward FitzGerald's letters, than which hardly any more interesting exist among those yet to be noticed.

The Merrow did not seem much displeased at this mode of conversation; and making an end of her whining all at once, 'Man, says she, looking up in Dick Fitzgerald's face; 'man, will you eat me? 'By all the red petticoats and check aprons between Dingle and Tralee, cried Dick, jumping up in amazement, 'I'd as soon eat myself, my jewel! Is it I eat you, my pet?
