"Maybe it will start without. If Stephens has just been running it, sometimes it will. Come on, let's try." Billy straightened up, lifted his chin and cried: "Houpe! Houpe! Houpe!" The little O'Mores stared in amazement. "Why don't you come on and whoop?" demanded Billy. "Don't you know how? You are great Indians! You got to whoop before you go on the warpath.
In process of time, thanks to his intimate knowledge of drill and musketry exercise, the excellent Mulcahy, wearing the corporal's stripe, went out in a troopship and joined Her Majesty's Royal Loyal Musketeers, commonly known as the "Mavericks," because they were masterless and unbranded cattle sons of small farmers in County Clare, shoeless vagabonds of Kerry, herders of Ballyvegan, much wanted "moonlighters" from the bare rainy headlands of the south coast, officered by O'Mores, Bradys, Hills, Kilreas, and the like.
'Very well, only don't tell the aunts that Winifred saddled all the O'Mores upon you. 'Not an O'More but should be welcome for his sake! 'Nor an Irishman, said Mr. Ferrars. Albinia suffered so much from the shock, that she could not make her appearance till noon on the following day.
'Isn't he a noble fellow? cried Albinia, warmly. 'Yes, said her brother; 'I doubt whether all the O'Mores put together have ever made such a conquest as he has. 'It was fun to see how the aunts were dismayed to find one of the horde in full force here. I believe it was as a measure of precaution that they took Lucy away. I was very glad for Lucy to go, but hers was not exactly the danger.
Kendal, talking so openly of the pleasure of seeing them again, that Albinia sometimes thought the blood of the O'Mores was a little chafed. 'There, said Genevieve, completing a housewife, filled with needles ready threaded, 'I wonder whether the omnibus is too protestant to leave a parcel at the convent? 'I don't think its scruples of conscience would withstand sixpence, said Albinia.
'I dare say, once accepted, the O'Mores would heartily receive her; but here, in this place, there are some might think it told against you, and might make her uncomfortable. 'What care I? I've lived and thriven under Bayford scorn many a day. And for her Oh! I defy anything so base to wound a heart so high as hers, and with me to protect her! 'And you can afford it? said Mr. Kendal.
'You are kindness itself, said Ulick; 'and there! I suppose I must go to the bottom of it, and it is no news that pence are not plenty among the O'Mores, though it is no fault of my uncle. See there what my poor dear mother says. He drew a letter from his pocket, and gave a page to her.
"The O'Mores are here," said Edith. "I haven't seen any of them, because I haven't gone out much in the few days since we came, but this is their summer home." "Edith, they say at the hospital that it will take careful nursing to save Phil. He is surrounded by stacks of maps and railroad guides. He is trying to frame up a plan to set the entire detective agency of the country to work.
Kendal, the O'Mores have too much gentle blood to do like that, even if she were one whom any one could scorn. Why, what is my mother herself but a Goldsmith by birth, and I'd like to see who would cast it up to any of the family that she was not as noble as an O'More! And Genevieve herself isn't every look and every movement full of the purest gentility her fathers' land can show?
