Perhaps, notwithstanding our hero's determination to turn his mind from every thing connected with the idea of Miss Nugent, some latent curiosity about the burial-place of the Nugents might have operated to make him call upon the count.
"I was just looking at the account of it, in the book which you saw open on my table. And as you seem to take an interest in that family, my lord, perhaps," said the count, "you may think this urn worth your acceptance." Lord Colambre said, "It would be highly valuable to him as the Nugents were his near relations."
After their restoration the Lacys had no rivals among the Norman-Irish except the Marshal family, and though both houses in half a century became extinct, not so those they had planted or patronized, or who claimed from them collaterally. In Meath the Tuites, Cusacks, Flemings, Daltons, Petits, Husseys, Nangles, Tyrrells, Nugents, Verdons, and Gennevilles, struck deep into the soil.
Could this too be jealousy! "I'll tell you what I'll do," Jimmy Urquhart said. "The run down would be rather jolly, but the run back in the dark might be a bore. The Nugents have got a house at Sandwich. Why shouldn't you go there? You know my sister Nugent, as they used to say." "Yes, of course I do," Lucy said, "but I couldn't really " "But she is there, my dear ma'am. That's the point.

Count O'Halloran turned from him to Lord Colambre, who had just got happily to the burial-place of the Nugents, when Lady Dashfort, coming between them, and spying the title of the chapter, exclaimed, "What have you there? Antiquities! my delight! but I never look at engravings when I can see realities."
'I was just looking at the account of it, in the book which you saw open on my table. And as you seem to take an interest in that family, my lord, perhaps, said the count, 'you may think this urn worth your acceptance.

He was seated next to Lady Mary at supper, her profile and diamonds were directed at him, and she looked almost as young, and quite as handsome as her daughter. Alas! and again alas! poor Freda!
Many of the Meath and Leinster Irish, under their native commanders, the Kavanaghs and Nugents, carried their swords into the service of William's ally, the Emperor of Austria, and distinguished themselves in all the campaigns of Prince Eugene.
