This lumberman I think his name is Mike Gannon lives by himself in a little cabin near the place where the new dock is to be built. He said he was used to living by himself, so the foreman told him he could camp out there. And there you'll find him, if he isn't chopping down trees in the woods. Just follow this road to the lake. Will your dog pull you there?"
Next morning after breakfast the Gruagach said to the Shee an Gannon: "Go out now and loosen my five golden cows and my bull without horns, and drive them to pasture; but when you have them out on the grass, be careful you don't let them go near the land of the giant."
He'll tell you the whole story from beginning to end, and show you the tongues of the giant." So the Gruagach came up and told the king the whole story, how the Shee an Gannon had become his cowboy, had guarded the five golden cows and the bull without horns, cut off the heads of the five-headed giant, killed the wizard hare, and brought his own twelve sons to life.
There's something in his soul, O'er which his melancholy sits on brood. Fearful as the experiences of this day had been, they were not yet at an end for me. Indeed, the most remarkable were to come. As I sat in this room of death it was not far from midnight I suddenly heard voices at the door, and Mrs. Gannon came in with Dr. Farnham.
When they sat down to dinner, the lady of the house said Jack had the air of a born gentleman about him, and the lord said he'd make him his steward. Jack brought his mother, and settled her comfortably near the castle, and all were as happy as you please. The Shee an Gannon was born in the morning, named at noon, and went in the evening to ask his daughter of the king of Erin.
Gannon at her place of nursing, I did not succeed in obtaining the least clew to the fate of this mysteriously lost letter. Neither of the women mentioned had seen it, nor was it really believed by them to have been on the table when they arranged the room after my Ada's peaceful death.
I think that Jerry was mad brute mad, for, though Clancy's blows were now reaching him, he didn't seem to be aware of them. His face was distorted with rage animal rage. When the gong clanged at the end of this round, the eighth, they still fought even when Gannon thrust his bulk between them. The crowd sank back into their seats gasping.
Madam Ponisi used to play Portia, and so did Mrs. Hoey. In December 1858, when The Merchant of Venice was finely revived at Wallack's theatre, with the elder Wallack as Shylock, the cast included Lester Wallack as Bassanio, John Brougham as Gratiano, A. W. Young a quaintly comic actor, too soon cut off as Launcelot Gobbo, Mary Gannon the fascinating, the irresistible as Nerissa, and handsome Mrs.
"And here is my father, and mother and Grandma Bell, too!" "Well, I'm sure I'm glad to see you all," said Mr. Gannon, who had an axe over his shoulder. "We came to see about that ragged coat," explained Daddy Bunker. "I guess my two boys told you why I wanted it. I remember you now. You are the man my clerk gave the coat to, back in Pineville, aren't you?" "Yes, and I want to thank you.
When the ninth round opened the men were both groggy and stumbled to the center of the ring like two blind men groping for each other, swinging wildly and moving slowly. Each was intent upon a knockout. Twice each swung and missed rights, avoiding the blows by remnants of their craft and cleverness. Twice they stumbled into clinches and were torn apart by the pitiless Gannon.
