"Yes, yes, indeed, Blandina," exclaimed Benicia, "they had no chance at all last night, for we danced until dawn, and perhaps they were afraid of Don Thomas Larkin. But we shall talk and have music to-night, and those fine new tables that came on the last ship from Boston must not be destroyed." "Well, if you really think " said Blandina, who always thought exactly as Benicia did.
'Well, it is not a thing you'd forget easily and indeed it was a very well kept secret, as well as an ugly one, and Lake smiled in his sly quizzical way. 'And where, Captain Lake, did it occur, may I enquire? said Larkin, with his charming insinuation. 'You may, and you shall hear in fact, I'll tell you the whole thing. It was at Gray's Club, in Pall Mall.
Sheriff Larkin scrambled up into the tree; but for half a minute Barnacle swung from him, clear of the ground. When he dropped to the ground the heel of the sheriff's boot came with the dog's jaws! Barnacle crouched down and began to masticate the heel.
"Jimmy Morris is a pretty good rower, but he has no boat of his own, and would have to row in one of Serwin's boats. You know what they are." "He couldn't come up to me, no matter in what boat he rowed," said Conrad. "Well, perhaps not; I don't know." "Well, you ought to know, John Larkin." "My opinion's my own, Conrad," said John, manfully. "All the same, you are mistaken."
That gallant Jacobite, Patrick Sarsfield, Burke, Grattan, Flood, and Robert Emmet stand shoulder to shoulder with three Fenian gentlemen, names Allan, Larkin, and O'Brien, known in ultra-Nationalist circles as the 'Manchester martyrs. For some years after this trio was hanged in Salford jail, it appears that the infant mind was sadly mixed in its attempt to separate knowledge in the concrete from the more or less abstract information contained in the Catechism; and many a bishop was shocked, when asking in the confirmation service, "Who are the martyrs?" to be told, "Allan, Larkin, and O'Brien, me lord!"
"Luke Larkin!" Luke turned, on hearing his name called, and was rather surprised to see Randolph hastening toward him. "How are you, Randolph?" he said politely. "Where are you going?" asked Randolph, not heeding the inquiry. "To the schoolhouse, to sweep out." "How long have you been janitor?" asked Randolph, abruptly. "About a year," Luke answered, in surprise. "That's a good while."
And so I began thus: "Little Lazy Larkin laughed and leaped, or longed and lounged the livelong day, and loved not labor, but liked leisure." "Ha! ha!" cried the Wee Chick; "that sounds so funny!" "It's got so many l's, that's the reason," said Fairy. "Tell it right," said Sunbeam.
The priests took turns in attending to confession and catechism in the Convent, usually three months at a time, though sometimes longer periods. The priest then on duty was Father Larkin. He is a good-looking European, and has a brother who is a professor in the college. He baptized, and then put oil upon the heads of the infants, as is the custom after baptism.
Jim Baggott fairly pranced from behind the bar, his round face shining with excitement. "Here's a gentleman from New York, old friend of yours." Ben Hallock turned to find himself facing an elderly personage with an impressively pointed gray beard and keen eyes behind gold-rimmed pince-nez. "Jumping Jehosaphet! If it ain't Perry Larkin!" Ben pumped the stranger's hand energetically.
The ship was losing altitude rapidly, and the motor was pounding furiously, but if it would only hold up he could make it. When he flashed across the river at Mezy, with some eight hundred feet to spare, he turned and waved a light-hearted O.K. to Larkin, and began to look for some landing place free of shell craters. It was not unlike looking for land in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean.
