"Then Elsie and I will be going too, sorr. It's most uncomfortable they're making us Dutch and the rest. That Antoine and his army keep pesterin' us and callin' us Huns." "You raise a very interesting question, Flynn, a very delicate question of fact and propriety.
He remembered one time running the Easting down in the Josiah T. Flynn, a smart ship, with a reputation, and they were cracking on as they would never dare crack, on in these degenerate days, when, blast his eyes, the Golden Bough came up on them, and passed, and ran away from the poor old Flynn, and Yankee Swope had stood on his poopdeck at the passing, and waved a hawser-end at the Old Man of the Flynn, asking if he wanted a tow.
Flynn followed, saying, very neatly: "From over the sea, I thank you." The usual applause was of the heartiest.... But Cicily was still energetic. "Now, all in favor of the motion and of the amendment, please say ay," she requested. For the third time, she led the chorus, and the vote was unopposedly affirmative.
That is, Captain Spark would be in charge of the boat for six hours, and then Mr. Carr would go on watch for the same length of time, until it became the captain's turn again. In this way each one could get sufficient rest. The two sailors, Bob and Mr. Tarbill were divided between the two heads of the watch, Bob and Tim Flynn being chosen by the captain.
Meantime Father Flynn, with a Jesuit's adroitness, was endeavouring to gain his object, as I afterwards learned; but on alluding to his works and celebrity, he discovered that the ambassador had never so much as heard of him, though he had heard wonders of his parrot, which he requested might be sent for.
They rose and lounged out, one after another; little Willy Eddy followed them. Flynn finished shaving Amidon, who also left, and finally he was left alone in the shop with Carroll, who arose and approached the chair. "Sorry to keep you waitin', Captain Carroll," said Flynn, preparing a lather with enthusiasm. "The day is before me," said Carroll, as he seated himself.
He himself never even thought of it, much less spoke of it, as such. "Well, I must be going to the 'Parlor," he would say when setting out to business. He was unmarried, and lived in a boarding-house. As Flynn shaved Rosenstein, who was naturally speechless, his landlady's husband, Billy Amidon, was talking a good deal.
With a strange quietness Rosalie gave orders to the Notary and Mrs. Flynn. There was a light in her eyes an unnatural light of strength and presence of mind. Her hand was steady, and as gently as a mother with a child she wiped the moist forehead, and poured a little brandy between the set teeth. "Stand back give him air," she said, in a voice of authority to those who crowded round.
"Did you send my telegram, Flynn?" she asked without turning her head. "I did, Miss." It being the most important telegram she had ever sent in all her life, Miss Landis became preoccupied, quite oblivious to extraneous details, including Siward, until the horse began acting badly again. Her slightly disdainful and perfect control of the reins interested the young man.
Anyway, that five-spot kept her mind busy. Our remarks to Ralph were short but meaty. "You see the bally muss you got me into, I hope," says Tidman. "And just remember," I adds, "when the fit strikes you to call again, that Mrs. Flynn is always on hand." "She's a female hyena, that woman," says Cousin Ralph, rubbin' his back between groans.
