In those days no man had call to be ashamed of his offspring, since it a baby was deformed or idiotic it was known to be a Changeling. It is sixty years now since old Mike Lonergan, who lived in a hovel in Moher Village, was robbed of his child.

"Something of a tenderfoot, but a good lad, Lon, a good lad." "You bet he is!" declared Jonas P. Lonergan, vigorously. "I knew his name when you spoke it, and now I know his face. He's the image of his mother that's what he is." Then he turned to Pratt again and roared: "Do you know who I am, boy?"

If we except the death of the brave Lonergan and that of half a dozen other noble fellows, whose names are unfortunately not at our command at this moment, and take into consideration the capture by the British of the Christian and chivalrous Father McMahon, who, regardless of his own personal safety, remained with the dead and dying, after the forces of O'Neill had recrossed the river, the victory of Ridgeway was completely unclouded.

His joy at hearing from his old companion-in-arms was unmistakable.

"Right you are, Captain, right you are!" agreed Lonergan. Frances and Pratt heard none of this. Pratt had entered the car and the two young people were talking to the Reverend Mr. Tooley, who was a demure little man in clerical black, who seemed quite happy over the reunion of the two old friends, Captain Dan Rugley and Jonas P.

"If this be the case, I am sure I need only state the above and certify to the identity of Mr. Lonergan, to bring from you an expression of your remembrance and the statement whether or no any property to which Mr. Lonergan might make a claim is in your possession.
