Why do you think they meant to rob his place?" "Well," began Barnes drily, "it would seem that his place is the only one in the neighbourhood that would BEAR robbing. My name is Barnes. Of course, Mr. O'Dowd, it is mere speculation on my part." "But who shot the man?" demanded the Irishman. "He certainly wasn't winged by any one from our place.
"Didn't you know he had false ones on?" "He did not have them on when he left me," declared Barnes. "Good God, O'Dowd, you can't mean that he he killed " "He stuck a knife in his neck. The poor devil died while I was out skirmishing, but not before he whispered in the chief's ear the name of the man who did for him. The dirty snake! And the chief trusted him as no crook ever was trusted before.
It has been said that our honest and dear old friend used to perform on the flute in private; Glorvina insisted upon having duets with him, and Lady O'Dowd would rise and artlessly quit the room when the young couple were so engaged. Glorvina forced the Major to ride with her of mornings. The whole cantonment saw them set out and return.
In fact, so positive was I that O'Dowd was all right, that I had started for Washington to send my report back home and wait for instructions.

O'Dowd his own brother-in-law, y' know was fightin' on the side of the Boolgarians and young Ashley Curtis was killed. Mr. O'Dowd's always fightin' whenever they's a war goin' on anywheres. I cain't understand why he ain't over in Europe now helpin' out one side or t'other." "Was this son Mr. Curtis's only child?" "So fer as I know. He left three little kids.

What's the matter, O'Dowd? Who wants ould Lancett at this outlandish toime of day?
In 1864 he contributed to Blackwood's Magazine a series of miscellaneous papers, Cornelius O'Dowd on Men, Women, and Things in General. L.'s life was largely spent abroad.
Barnes," she called out, gaily. "I will not bite you, or scratch you, or harm you in any way. Ask Mr. O'Dowd and he will tell you that I am quite docile. What is there about me, sir, that causes you to think that I am dangerous? You have barely spoken a word to me, and you've been disagreeably nice to Mrs. Collier and Mrs. Van Dyke.
