Pray present my respectful compliments to Mrs. Bingham, and say how deeply I feel her most kind attention." Emily rose at the instant, and recovering her self-possession at once, said "You forget, Mr. Lorrequer, it is a secret from whom the flowers came; at least mamma hoped to place them in your vases without you knowing. So, pray, don't speak of it and I'm sure Mr. O'Leary will not tell."
It seems that O'Leary had acceded to a proposal from some of the other party to accompany them to the Porte St. Martin, where Mrs. Bingham and her daughter had engaged a box. Amid all the confusion which troubled thoughts and wine produced in me, I could not help perceiving a studied politeness and attention on the part of Mr.
This sharp and timely rebuke to the unpatriotic spirit to which O'Leary gave expression won the hearty and unanimous approval of the country to the President. Nothing like this bold defiance came from Hughes until a few days before the election. The Democratic campaign, within twenty-four hours after the publication of the O'Leary telegram, was on again in full swing.
Rolleston's other guests being Mr. John O'Leary, whose name is held in honour for his courage and honesty by all who know anything of the story of Ireland in our times, and who was sent a quarter of a century ago as a Fenian patriot not into seclusion with sherry and bitters, at Kilmainham, like Mr.
As soon as I was enabled to speak upon the matter, I begged Trevanion to look to poor O'Leary, who still lay upon the ground in a state of perfect unconsciousness.
O'Leary was as good as his word. In a species of French, that I'd venture to say would be perfectly intelligible in Mullingar, he contrived to explain to the maire that I was neither a runaway nor a swindler, but a very old friend of his, and consequently sans reproche.
A tragic occurrence, arising out of the working of these laws, is commemorated by a tombstone in Kilcrea Abbey near Cork. Arthur O'Leary, a member of the old Catholic family of that name, had served for a few years in the Hungarian army, as the laws against the Catholics did not permit them to hold commissions in the British service.
"Oh yes, I know him; he comes from County Mayo his property's close to mine; that is, the patch of rocks and cabins which he has managed to mortgage three times over, and each time for more than its value which he still calls the O'Leary estate." "Well; some time ago that is, since London began to fill, O'Leary was seen walking down Regent Street, with a parson.
One of them was O'Leary of You Bet, whom he found without trouble. But he got very little encouragement from O'Leary; and he very soon discovered how hard it is for an honest man to get any sort of satisfaction from thieves and liars. In the absence of any definite information he resolved to turn eastward, across the Sierras. He was on the right track, as we know.
The idea of O'Leary's assuming such a metamorphosis was too absurd not to throw me into a hearty fit of laughing, in which the worthy emigre indulged also. "But why not leave this at once," said I, "if you are so much in dread of a recognition?" "You forget the trial," added O'Leary, "I must be here on the 18th or all my bail is forfeited." "True I had forgot that. Well, now, your plans?"
