On the eve of his departure, which had been announced by a press that now followed his movements with the attention accorded to a man of importance in State affairs, he obeyed a summons from Madeleine Presson. She put a letter into his hands. It was addressed to Clare Kavanagh. "You will find her, Harlan," she said, comfortingly. "Love will search her out.
Frank forgot that intimacy in the country does not necessarily lead to intimacy in the city, and he was considerably surprised when Victor, not appearing to notice his offered hand, said coldly, "I don't think I remember you." "Don't remember me!" exclaimed Frank, amazed. "Why, I am Frank Kavanagh!
This time there was no white figure on the church porch and no wistful voice to call after him. He kept on up the hill. He was not thinking about what Dennis Kavanagh might say to him.
Kavanagh, wounded, but not disabled, at the same moment dashed his rifle, held across, into his opponent's face, and as he staggered back darted his bayonet at him over the shield, piercing his shoulder. Yet he could still swing his right arm, still wield his razor-edged weapon. And still they faced each other, bleeding freely.
"Exactly," said Harry; "and I strongly expect that I should lose by any disturbance in the Soudan, and that Kavanagh would too. It is a long story; but you are such an old friend that it won't bore you, Strachan, though it does not concern you personally. You both know all about the will and its mysterious disappearance, so I need not recapitulate that.
I hate snow in February; there is no chance of real frost for skating, and it spoils the football. Oh, here's Kavanagh."

"Has the cold wind made you hungry, or has the effort to understand that chorus in Euripides exhausted you?"
Two of them, Strachan and Kavanagh, were to leave at the end of the half, and Forsyth was to do so after the next. "Where's Kavanagh?" said the latter, coming into the room and sitting down by the fire. "At his tutor's," said Strachan; "he is bound to be in directly. Let the tea brew a bit longer." "It's uncommonly cold this evening; going to snow, I think.
This was first breached by the artillery, and then carried by assault by the 53rd and 90th regiments, and a detachment of Sikhs; the latter, single handed, storming another building called the Observatory, in the rear of the Mess House. At the same time the garrison of the Residency had, in accordance with the plan brought out by Kavanagh, begun operations on their side.
"I could play now," replied Kavanagh; "my side does not hurt me a bit whatever I do. It is only weakness that stops me, and I feel stronger every morning." "Then we shall have a four set without recourse to neighbours when Mary Strachan arrives," said Beatrice. "Mary Strachan! Is she coming?" cried Kavanagh. "Yes; mamma asked her, and she is to arrive early next week." "That will be jolly!
Near Bolton's farm we passed the holding of a tenant named Kavanagh, one of the three who were "allowed" to pay their rents. Several Land League huts are on his place, and the evicted people who occupy them put their cattle with his. He is a quiet, cautious man, and very reticent.
