Sturk, should have £50 reward. 'News in to-day, by Jove, said Toole, bustling solemnly into the club; 'by the packet that arrived at one o'clock, a man taken, answering Nutter's description exactly, just going aboard of a Jamaica brig at Gravesend, and giving no account of himself. He's to be sent over to Dublin for identification.
Nutter's in the parlour, at your service, answered the lean maid who had opened the door, and who recognising in that gentleman an adherent of the enemy, had assumed her most impertinent leer and tone on the instant. The ambassador looked in and drew back. 'Oh, then, 'tisn't the mistress you want, but the master's old housekeeper; ask her.
Observe, further, all these extraordinary and incomprehensible changes in the appearance of the country, and in the situation of the marks, meres, and boundaries, are favourable to Mistress Nutter, and give her the advantage she seeks over my honoured and honourable client. They are set down in Mistress Nutter's plan, it is true; but when, let me ask, was that plan prepared?
'I tell you what, Sir, said Toole, who had no reliance upon the wisdom of the female garrison, and had serious misgivings lest at the first stout summons the maids should open the door, and the ill-favoured pair establish themselves in occupation of poor Mrs. Nutter's domicile, 'I'll not object to the notices being received.
I'm your friend, and he placed his hand amicably upon Nutter's arm; 'but Lord Castlemallard has, now and then, a will of his own, I need not tell you; and somebody's been doing you an ill turn with his lordship; and you're a gentleman, Mr. Nutter, and I like you, and I'll be frank with you, knowing 'twill go no further. Sturk wants the agency. You have my good-will.
He sees you walking down the street, ready to die o' laughing at nothing, by Jove! swore Toole, in deep disgust; 'and and och! hang it! it's all a confounded pack o' nonsense. Sir, if you could not keep grave for five minutes, you ought not to have come at all. But what need I care? It's Nutter's affair, not mine. 'And well for him we failed. Did you ever see such a fish?
'And do you mean to tell me you did not hear that vulgar dog Nutter's unmanly jokes? 'Jokes! repeated Puddock, in large perplexity, 'why I've been here in this town for more than five years, and I never heard in all that time that Nutter once made a joke and upon my life, I don't think he could make a joke, Sir, if he tried I don't, indeed, Lieutenant O'Flaherty, upon my honour!
Gamble's conducting clerk had gone up stairs to Mrs. Nutter's door, and being admitted, had very respectfully asked leave to open, for that lady's instruction, a little statement which he was charged to make.
Nutter's room was opened, and Moggy's voice cried out 'Don't go, Sir; for the love o' goodness, don't go. Is it Father Roach that's in it? ''Tis I, woman Mr. Lowe open the door, I've a word or two to say. About a quarter of an hour before this, Mr.
'It seems to me, Sir, you might have given some of poor Mrs. Nutter's friends at Chapelizod a hint of the state of things. I, Sir, and Father Roach we've meddled, Sir, more in the business than than but no matter now and all under a delusion, Sir. And poor Mistress Sally Nutter she doesn't seem to trouble you much, Sir.
