We thought six would be just about the right age, but we simply couldn't find a child that would do. We had to know about its antecedents. We looked through the orphan asylums, but there wasn't anything pure-blooded American that we could be sure of. We were all agreed that we wanted pure American blood. I knew Mrs. O'Farrel had relatives on Cape Cod.
O'Farrel over Sunday, and now David is bringing her here. She'll be here in a minute." "Why David?" Gertrude twinkled. "Why not David?" Beulah retorted. "It will be a good experience for him, besides David is so amusing when he tries to be, I thought he could divert her on the way." "It isn't such a crazy idea, after all, Gertrude."
I was to have the command of the expedition in the launch I had charge of the first cutter O'Farrel of the second, and Swinburne had the charge of the jolly-boat. At dusk, the head of the brig was again turned towards St. Pierre's, and we ran slowly in.
"I took the name of Thurot from my mother; my grandfather's name was O'Farrel and proud I am of a name which has never been disgraced. But I must not interrupt you, gentlemen. Go on with your writing; I will by-and-by, if you wish it, entertain you with my history. I have nothing to be ashamed of."

"Did you travel alone, Eleanor?"
Hard service, wounds, and disappointment soon terminated his life; and three months after he had been laid in his grave my father was born fatherless before he saw the light and soon became motherless, for Madame O'Farrel survived her husband scarcely a year.
Brigadier Ramsay, with the regiments of O'Farrel, Mackay, Lauder, Leven and Monroe, were ordered to the right of the whole army, to line some hedges and hollow ways on the farther side of the village of Lare.
The once gay and high-spirited officer found himself mistaken: they could not give any encouragement to one who had set so bad an example to the younger members of their families; should they support Madame O'Farrel, their own daughters might be throwing themselves away on some of the Irish adventurers, with whom the country swarmed, and expect to be provided with houses and establishments.
