When the Notary stood on the steps of the saddler's shop, and with fine rhetoric proposed a vote of admiration for the girl, the cheering could be heard inside the post-office, and it brought Mrs. Flynn outside. "'Tis for her, the darlin' for Ma'm'selle Rosalie they're splittin' their throats!" she said to Charley as he was making his way from the sick man's room to the street door.
Tarbill came up, he caught the iron in the man's coat and hauled him to the side. Then the captain and Tim Flynn hauled him back on board. "Help! I am drowning! Save me!" spluttered the nervous passenger. "I'll go to the bottom of the Pacific!" "No, you won't," answered Captain Spark. "But after this you had better sit still." "Oh, what a trying experience!" wailed the unfortunate one.
I pay the whole of the rent and I have paid for some clothes for him." "You are spending your money very foolishly," said Jasper frowning. "Would I spend it any less foolishly if I should lend you ten dollars?" "There is some difference between Mike Flynn and me. I am a gentleman." "So is Mike." "A queer sort of gentleman! He is only a poor telegraph boy." "Still he is a gentleman."
I'll see him now in the Ormond, Lenehan said, and sound him. One good turn deserves another. Do, Tom Rochford said. Tell him I'm Boylan with impatience. Goodnight, M'Coy said abruptly. When you two begin Nosey Flynn stooped towards the lever, snuffling at it. But how does it work here, Tommy? he asked. Tooraloo, Lenehan said. See you later.
But Mary Flynn did, with a face like a piece of scarlet bunting. Having finished with a flourish, she could scarce keep her hands off the cowardly grocer. The Cure turned to Rosalie. "It is absurd," he said. "Forgive me," he added to the Seigneur. "It is better that Rosalie should answer this charge. If she gives her word of honour, I will deny communion to whoever slanders her hereafter."
"Who said I did?" she retorted, angrily. "Why, I wouldn't marry Ed Flynn if he was the last man in the world." "You'd 'nough sight better marry me," said Dennison. "Go along; you're fooling." "No, I ain't. I mean it, honest."
She gave a sidewise glance at Ellen, and went on, making her fingers fly. Mr. Flynn showed Ellen what to do. She had to tie the shoes together with bits of twine, laced through eyelet holes. Ellen took a piece of twine and tied it in as Flynn watched her. He laughed pleasantly. "You'll do," he said, approvingly.
Before he left the post-office, Filion Lacasse, Maximilian Cour, and Mrs. Flynn had given forth his history, as related by Jo Portugais. The village was agog with excitement. But attention was not centred on himself, for Rosalie's courage had set the parish talking.
Flynn hung about her in the shop a good deal, but he had made no efforts to pay her decided attention. His religion was the prime factor for his hesitation. He could not see his way clear towards open addresses with a view to marriage. Still, he had a sharp eye for other admirers, and Ellen had not been in the factory two months before Granville Joy was sent into another room.
Flynn stepped apprehensively forward; then, shrugging a shoulder, he responded to Kathleen's hand on his arm. They went down the stairs together, and out to their carriage. As they drove away, Kathleen said: "It's strange that men who do such fine things should look so commonplace." "The other one might have been more uncommon," he replied.
