From the confluence the river is called the Foyle, so that from the splendid bridge leading into Lifford may be seen the rare spectacle of three considerable rivers in one meadow. Lifford is very clean and very pretty. The gaol is the most striking building, and I wandered through its deserted corridors, desolate as those of Monaghan.
But as Ermine showed surprise at the retention of a companion devoid of this sixth sense, so valuable to the blind, he added "No one would suit him so well. Mr. Lifford has been with him ever since his sight began to fail, and understands all his ways." "Yes, that makes a great difference."
"I don't come much in his way, he has been a good deal laid up with sciatica, but he seems very fond of her; and it was all her doing that they have been all this time at Littleworthy, instead of being in town for the season. She thought it better for him." "And where is Mr. Lifford?" asked Alick. "Gone to M till Saturday." "Unable to face the bride." "I fear Ranger is not equally shy," said Mr.
