Vosburgh, keeping a little to the rear on the sidewalk, watched Merwyn, who held his attention almost equally with the general issues of this decisive battle. The youth was dealing blows like an athlete, and keeping pace with the boldest. The windows of the buildings on Broadway were now crowded by thousands witnessing the conflict, while Mr.
"Well," replied Merwyn, languidly, "come and see me when you can, and I'll walk over to your quarters I suppose I should so call them and have a smoke with you occasionally. I expect to be awfully dull here, but between the river and the mountains I shall have resources." "You propose to ignore society then?" "Why say 'ignore'? That implies a conscious act.
Merwyn had at least accomplished one thing, he confirmed her father's opinion that he was not commonplace. Travel, residence abroad, association with well-bred people, and a taste for reading, had given him a finish which a girl of Marian's culture could not fail to appreciate.
With noiseless tread she crossed the threshold, and saw Marian's pure, pale profile; she drew a few steps nearer; the young girl turned and bowed gravely, then resumed her watch. For the moment Merwyn was silent, then in a voice all too distinct he said: "Cruel, unnatural mother, to rob me of my manhood, to chain me like one of her slaves.
The faithful woman, as indifferent to the tumult and havoc in the city as if it were in another land, sat beside him and furthered all efforts in a winning fight. Merwyn saw him in a hospital ward, surrounded by skilful hands, before he took his leave. "God bless ye!" Sally began. "If yez hadn't brought me " But, pressing her hand warmly, he did not wait to hear her grateful words.
Barney Ghegan eventually recovered, and resumed his duties on the police force. He often said, "Oi'm proud to wear the uniform that Misther Merwyn honored." I have now only to outline the fortunes of Captain Lane and "Missy S'wanee," and then to take leave of my reader, supposing that he has had the patience to accompany me thus far.
"There are ghosts in every house where people have lived and died; that is, if you knew and cared for the people. My father is with me very often!" "Mr. Merwyn, I don't understand you!" she exclaimed, without trying to disguise her astonishment. The conversation was so utterly unlike anything that had occurred between them before that she wondered whither it was leading.
SLEEP, which Marian said would cut short her father's threatened panegyrics of Merwyn, did not come speedily. The young girl had too much food for thought. She knew that Mrs. Strahan had not, during the past summer, misunderstood her son's faithful nurse.
A moment later she sprung up and rushed back to the office. Merwyn thought that she was partially demented, and could scarcely keep pace with her. Bursting in at the door, she cried: "Och! ye bloody spalpanes, to put a loive man where ye did! Come wid me, an' oi'll tache ye that I knows more than ye all."
According to your own view we have another hard day before us." Merwyn complied, and bowed his thanks. "Now for plans," resumed Mr. Vosburgh. "Are you going to police headquarters again?" "Direct from here." "I shall be there occasionally, and if you learn anything important, leave me a note. If I am not there and you can get away, come here. Of course I only ask this as of a friend and loyal man.
