Kendal insisting that she should not leave them; little Awk coaxing her; and Maurice exclaiming, 'If the ladies want her, let them come after her! One always goes to see a horse. 'I'm not so well worth the trouble, Maurice. 'I know Ulick O'More would come in to see you when all the piebalds for the show were going by!
'You might post it for less than that, said Sophy. 'Don't you know, said Ulick O'More, who was playing with the little Awk in the window, 'that the feminine mind loves expedients? It would be less commonplace to confide the parcel to the conductor, than merely let him receive it as guard of the mail bag and servant of the public. 'Exactly, laughed Genevieve.
The imaginary disdain of Ulick O'More was entirely gone, and perceiving that the Irishman's delicacy was keeping him away from Willow Lawn, Gilbert himself met him and brought him home, in the delight of having heard of a naval cadetship having been offered to his brother, and full of such eager joy as longed for sympathy. 'Happy fellow! Gilbert murmured to himself.
'So his aunt told him, but he mixes it up with O'More, and insists on my complaining to Mr. Goldsmith, and getting the lad dismissed for a libellous caricaturist, as he calls it. Now, little as I should have expected such conduct from O'More, it could not be made a ground of complaint to his uncle. 'I should think not. No one with more wit than Algernon would have dreamt of it!
Not a dozen yards from where we camped was a rose-tree-think of it, Belgard, a rose-tree on a rag-tag island of Lake Superior! 'There's luck in odd numbers, says Rory O'More. 'There's luck here, said I; and at it we went just beside the rose-tree. What's the result?
"Me house?" marveled Freckles. "Of course," said the Angel. "Your uncle says your grandmother left your father her dower house and estate, because she knew his father would cut him off. You get that, and all your share of your grandfather's property besides. It is all set off for you and waiting. Lord O'More told me so. I suspect you are richer than McLean, Freckles."
There is no stranger story in all history than the intimate connection of the O'More family with the annals of the Ancient Order of Hibernians. The lineage of this family furnishes the links connecting the ancient orders of pagan Ireland through the centuries with the Ancient Order in modern times.
Kendal through the party, and Winifred made a discovery that excited her more than Albinia thought warranted by any fact relating to the horde of Irish cousins. 'Only think, Albinia, I have found out that poor Ellen O'More is Mr. Goldsmith's sister! 'Indeed! But I am afraid I don't remember which Ellen O'More is.
You know I never undertake to recollect any but your real cousins out of the thirty-six. 'For shame, Albinia, I have so often told you about Ellen. I'm sure you can't forget. Her husband is my sister's brother-in-law's cousin. 'Oh, Winifred, Winifred! 'But I tell you, her husband is the third son of old Mr. O'More of Ballymakilty, and was in the army.
It was a less decided kindness that he ordered Maurice's pony to be turned out to grass, so as to prevent rides in solitude, thinking the boy too young to be trusted, and warned by the example of Gilbert's temptations. Going up to the bank to obtain a supply of gold, he found young O'More there without his uncle.
