He reached the Greggs' house at twenty minutes past three, Mary Ellen was standing on the step outside the door, smiling in a good-humoured way. Mrs. Gregg, who looked hot and puzzled, was just inside the door. "Oh, Dr. O'Grady," she said, "I'm so glad you've come. This girl won't go away and I can't make out what she wants." "It was Constable Moriarty bid me come," said Mary Ellen.
What was more important to him, this had all been done without exciting hard feelings. "Stirling's a reasonable fellow," Gallagher told Costell, not knowing how much Peter was seeing of the big leader, "and he isn't dead set on carrying his own schemes. We've never had so little talk of mutiny and sulking as we have had this paring. Moriarty and Blunkers swear by him. It's queer.
"Oh, hang it, man," put in Clowes, "you don't want to kill the poor bhoy, surely? You must let him tell one person." "All right," said Trevor, "you can tell Moriarty. But nobody else, mind." O'Hara promised that Moriarty should receive the news exclusively. "But why did the League go for ye?" "They happen to be down on me. It doesn't matter why. They are." "I see," said O'Hara.
I don't say but there's bits in it that isn't right, but you have the tune safe enough." "Would Thady Gallagher know it?" "He would," said Moriarty, "and what's more he'd be lepping mad when he heard it. And you couldn't wonder. You wouldn't like it yourself, doctor, if somebody was to play a tune at you that you hated worse nor you hate the devil." Dr. O'Grady was disappointed.
He stopped at this point because Dr. O'Grady was not listening to him. He had stretched his head and shoulders out of the window and was talking in a very loud tone to Moriarty. "Run over," he said, "and tell young Kerrigan to come here to me for a minute. When you've done that go to bed or dig potatoes or do any other mortal thing except stand at the door of the barrack grinning."
It was my intention to have stopped there, and to have said nothing of that event which has created a void in my life which the lapse of two years has done little to fill. My hand has been forced, however, by the recent letters in which Colonel James Moriarty defends the memory of his brother, and I have no choice but to lay the facts before the public exactly as they occurred.
"And what are you going to do about Rand-Brown?" "Fight him, of course. What else could I do?" "But you're no match for him." "We'll see." "But you aren't," persisted Clowes. "He can give you a stone easily, and he's not a bad boxer either. Moriarty didn't beat him so very cheaply in the middle-weight this year. You wouldn't have a chance." Trevor flared up.
"Oh! is it so with you?" thought Moriarty "that's just what I wanted to know and I'll keep your secret: I don't forget Peggy Sheridan and his goodness." Moriarty said not a word more about White Connal, or Miss Dora; and he and Harry shot a great many birds this day.
O'Hara's ally, Moriarty, was accustomed to take his mathematics with Mr Morgan, whose room was directly opposite Mr Banks'. With Mr Morgan it was not quite so easy to date one's expulsion from the room under ordinary circumstances, and in the normal wear and tear of the morning's work, but there was one particular action which could always be relied upon to produce the desired result.
"It's no way to make a sergeant of me to be dressing up Mary Ellen." "It's far the best way. When the Lord-Lieutenant sees her and hears " "It's not going to be done, anyway," said Moriarty, "for I won't have it." "Listen to me now," said Dr. O'Grady, "and you may take it that this is my last word, for I haven't time to waste talking to you.
