Lord Monteagle was then borne to his carriage, which was at hand, and Lord Scrope, the moment he had seen the equipage move slowly off, returned to his friend. 'Well Cadurcis, he exclaimed in an anxious voice, 'I hope you have not killed him. What will you do now? 'I shall go home, and await the result, my dear Scrope. I am sorry for you, for this may get you into trouble.
After a few passes, Cadurcis received a slight wound in his arm, while his weapon pierced his antagonist in the breast. Lord Monteagle dropped his sword and fell. 'You had better fly, Lord Cadurcis, said Mr. Horace Pole. 'This is a bad business, I fear; we have a surgeon at hand, and he can help us to the coach that is waiting close by.
Very interesting! 'Wonderful creature! exclaimed the dame. 'Charming! said Mr. Pole. 'If you ask Lady Monteagle, she will introduce him to you, and then, perhaps, you will be fortunate enough to be handed to dinner by him. 'Oh! how I should like it! 'You must take care, however, not to eat; he cannot endure a woman who eats. 'I never do, said the lady, simply; 'at least at dinner.
The President of the Council, the Marquis of Lansdowne, in offering some remarks on the speech of Lord Monteagle, said he wished to God he could differ from him, in the expectations which he entertained of the too probable, he would not say certain, but the too probable recurrence of that alarming evil, which was even then staring them in the face.
The Lord of Monteagle was a famous swordsman, and it might well be that the son had learned from a good master. "Gentlemen, are you ready?" cried Rookwood drawing his rapier, as also did Sir Francis, that they might interfere should need arise.
Broadly speaking, Redmond's speech pleased the people. It was welcomed by generous-minded men in another class, who responded at once in the same spirit. Lord Monteagle wrote: "Mr. Redmond has risen nobly to the occasion"; Lord Bessborough, that he trusted all the Unionists in the South would at once join the Irish Volunteers.
In September, Lord Monteagle, who showed much practical good sense and kindheartedness throughout the famine, called the attention of the Treasury to this matter, and requested that some steel mills and querns should be placed at the disposal of the Commissariat officer on duty in his district; for, said he, the markets are rising, and the people, by buying corn and grinding it for themselves, will have food cheaper than if they bought meal; and moreover they can thus occupy old people for whom no other employment can be found.
Monteagle frowned, for the words of the Prime Minister were not to his liking. "There is more," said he; "certain of those have been seen in France." "'Tis a most Catholic country," replied Salisbury, "and, perhaps, wishing to worship unmolested before their altars, some have gone thither for their religion's sake."
There is a good deal of panel-work, and a splendid oak roof, with embattled tie-beams. The pierced parapet is remarkably good. At the extremity of the graveyard is a defaced effigy. Near the church are two ancient buildings. A small building, surrounded by a moat, is said to occupy the site of a manor house given to Lord Monteagle for bringing about the discovery of the Gunpowder Plot.
'How d'ye do? said her ladyship, with an arch smile, 'I really could not expect to see you! Cadurcis looked a little confused; he detested scenes, and now he dreaded one. 'You seem quite distrait, continued Lady Monteagle, after a moment's pause, which his lordship ought to have broken. 'But no wonder, if the world be right. 'The world cannot be wrong, said Cadurcis sarcastically.
