It's all along of his honer's thick shoes;" and Larry, stepping backwards towards the door, lifted them up from some corner, and coming well forward, exposed them with the soles uppermost to the whole table. "And that's not all, yer honer; but they've squoze the very toes of me into a jelly."
"No I didn't, yer honer; that is, I did refuse to marry the girl; why wouldn't I? But I didn't break my promise, becase I only promised, purviding ; and you see, Father John, they was only decaving me." "Well, Denis; and who is it after all that you are going to have?" "Well, then, it's jist Mary Brady." "What! Pat Brady's sister is it?" "Iss, yer honer."
Well now, Larry; tell me this; which of all the gentlemen in the house has got the largest foot?" "Is it the largest foot, yer honer?" said Larry, altogether surprised by my question. "Yes; the largest foot," and then I proceeded to explain to him my misfortune.
"Yz, yer honer; we've begun thin since before daylight this blessed morning." It was now eleven o'clock, and a pick-axe had not been put into the ground, nor the work marked. "Been here before daylight!" said Herbert. "And has there been nobody to set you to work?"
But nevertheless I put my foot into it, and felt that a descent to the drawing-room was now possible. "But yer honer will give 'em back to a poor man?" said Larry almost crying. "The masther's mad this minute becase the dinner's not up. Glory to God, only listhen to that!" And as he spoke a tremendous peal rang out from some bell down stairs that had evidently been shaken by an angry hand.
He had then, at the risk of his own neck, driven off as fast as Fred Brown's broken-knee'd horse could take him, and was proceeding at a gallop towards Ballycloran, when he was stopped near Mrs. Mehan's well-known shop by Biddy, who was standing by the road-side opposite. He stopped the horse as quick as he could, and Biddy came running to him with Feemy's bundle. "Is that yer honer, at last?
"I do, your honer, jist for my wife's mother, ye see; but I live down towards Cash." "Ah, very good-natured of you to your wife's mother. I hope the three of you have no objection to take a walk to Mohill this evening."
Sez I, "Your expenditure of money today has been unusial." Sez I, "The sum of ten cents has jest been raised by you for noble principles, and I honer you for it. But still the money has gone." Sez I, "Do you feel able to incur the entire expense?" Sez he, "All my life, Samantha, I have jest hankered after seein' a mermaid. Them beautiful creeters, a settin' and combin' their long golden tresses.
I heard tell that Tom Ginty, the pig-jobber, has comed home to Dromod from where he was away tiv' Athlone; and they do be telling me, he brought a thrifle of money with him; and yer honer knows Mary had half given a promise to Ginty afore he went: and so, yer riverence, lest there be any scrimmage betwixt Ginty and I, ye see it's as well to get the marriage done off hand."
"Yer honer won't be afther taking an innocent boy like me," began Tim, "that knows nothing at all at all about it. Shure yer honer knows the masther, Mr. Thady down at Ballycloran; he will tell yer honer I'd nothing in life to do in it.
